Italian Cream Cheese Chicken

This is been a family favorite for years.  It is still in the recipe rotation.  That is how much everyone loves it.  Like I said before, I love cream cheese in recipes.  Some turn out better than others.  This one is awesome.  I skinny it up a little by using fat free cream cheese and wheat noodles.


Rating: 5 stars  Difficulty of Recipe: 2 stars
How I changed it:  I like it saucy.  So I doubled it by adding in 2 cream cheese, 2 italian packets, and 2 cans of soup.
Things I may do diferently next time: Nothing
Will I make it again: You know it!

Ingredients:
4 chicken breasts,
1 packet Zesty Italian dressing seasoning,
1 8 oz. cream cheese (softened),
1 cans cream of chicken soup;


Cook on low in crockpot for 4- 6 hours. I always throw in frozen chicken breasts at around 11 and it is ready by 5.  (If sauce is too thick, add a little milk.)


Serve over pasta or rice

  2. I make something similar that includes cream of mushroom soup. I love meals with cream cheese.

  3. I would love to make this while I'm at work but my husband doesn't get home until about 9 hours after I would turn the crock pot on. unfortunately I am not home for 10 hours and its nice to come home to a meal that's ready to eat. Have you attempted to cook this on low for longer or in the oven instead? I'm looking for a way to make this without overcooking it.
