Italian Cream Cheese Chicken

Italian Cream Cheese Chicken

4 chicken breasts
1 envelope Italian dressing mix (dry)
1/4 cup water

Put chicken, Italian dressing mix, and water in crock pot on high.
Cook for 3 hours (good Sunday dish!)

After 3 hours - in saucepan, warm through...

1 - 8oz block of cream cheese (reduced fat)
1 can of cream of chicken soup (reduced fat)
1 - 4oz (drained) can mushrooms (if desired)

Combine with cooked chicken in crock pot.

Serve over rice or pasta.

There are a number of variations of this recipe, I used mushroom soup instead of cream of chicken because that is what I had. I did add the mushrooms because I like them. You could also add some chopped red and/or green bell peppers to add some color. The cream cheese makes it so yummy. It is so easy to make and so nice to come home from church with the house smelling like dinner is ready.

I tried it once with cream of mushroom soup and once with cream of chicken soup. I personally like the mushroom better. But you choose.
