Enjoy this Buffalo Chicken Garlic Texas Toast with buffalo chicken (easily made in the slow cooker) piled onto crispy garlic Texas toast then topped with melty cheese!A FUN TWIST ON A CLASSIC FLAVORI have been having a lot of fun with these Texas Toast recipes! Ive shared a Texas Toast French Dips (so, so good!), Texas Toast Pizzas and Texas Toast Sloppy Joes. Now we have Buffalo Chicken Texas Toast! You can pop the chicken into the slow cooker and let its do its thing. Then all you have to do is pile it onto some of the garlic texas toast with some cheese and dinner is served! Its not just super simple to toss together, its so yummy and great for a weeknight dinner!FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:What to serve with Texas Toast? You cant go wrong with a good ole side salad and some steamed veggies when serving this Buffalo Chicken Toast. I love the microwavable steamed broccoli for things like this. How can I make this work and cook while Im away at work? I think if you have a digital crock pot, you could put this on before work and cook it for the 4-6 hours then allow the crock pot to switch to a warm setting until you get home to finish it. Digital crock pots are the best friend of those of us with full time jobs but want to come home to a nice meal! What if I hate cream cheese? You could skip the cream cheese if you dont like it. Or after the chicken is finished cooking and you take it out, you could stir in a bit of sour cream to add a bit of creaminess to the dish. Can I make this without a crock pot? Sure, I think you could just cook the chicken (boil, roast, or air fry) and coat it in the buffalo sauce and melted cream cheese then continue with the recipe. What other kind of chicken can I use? I think this would be great with popcorn chicken. Air fry or bake popcorn chicken then coat with the buffalo sauce and continue with the recipe as written. Additionally, you can use tenderloins and thin-cut chicken breasts. This will result in a shorter cooking time. Lots of ways to play with this recipe to change it up! How can I store leftovers? You can keep this in the fridge for up to 5 days, but I like to eat this immediately so the garlic bread stays crispy.

I prefer Coles Garlic Texas Toast (not a paid affiliate link) when I can get my hands on it. A lot of garlic Texas toast is getting thinner.

Some folks like blue cheese with buffalo chicken (I am not a fan but go for what you like).sliced green onions this is optional but does add a nice pop of color and light onion flavor.
