Creamy Crockpot Chicken

Ready for the easiest meal prep ever that still produces an amazing dinner? Here ya go.

Creamy Crockpot Chicken



3-4 Chicken breasts
Italian dressing
1 block cream cheese
1 can cream of chicken soup

Put chicken in bottom of crock pot.

Pour Italian dressing over the top to your satisfactory. I usually use between 1/4 to 1/2 cup.

Mix cream cheese and soup in bowl until smooth, then pour over the top of chicken.

That's it! If the chicken is frozen and you cook it on high plan on 4-5 hours. I usually cut my chicken into smaller pieces to help it cook faster. On low will take 6 or 7 hours. Defrosted chicken cooks much faster.

Serve over rice or mashed potatoes.

This is an awesome foundation recipe that you can mess with. Sometimes I add garlic for more of an Italian feel or I've also added sour cream to give it more of a zing. You can try all kinds of different things since it would take a lot to mess this recipe up.

Microwave score: 4.0 This microwaves pretty well. The sauce keeps the chicken from drying up but sometimes the cream cheese will separate over time a bit which can make the texture a little goofy.

Freezer score: 4.5 I have frozen this to use later and it does really well! I usually reheat it over the stove to make sure it all gets mixed well again
.
Rob score: 4.5 This is one of our staple meals that we do pretty often because of the convenience and he has yet to complain.

Overall score. 4.5 This is a great recipe. By itself it can get kind of old if you do it alot, but have fun with it and try new things to keep it new and exciting!

Maquel's Critique: Ok I just tried it this weekend (3/19/16). We were at my sister-in-laws house for dinner, and it is SO good. Jake really liked it as well and asked me to make it this week.
