Slow Cooker Creamy Italian Chicken
Very Good 4.5/5

Just to clarify for the questions below:
First, YES the cream cheese is figured into the totals...if you use FULL FAT cream cheese, the fat content will be considerably higher. But low fat cream cheese really takes the fat down.

Second, I haven't ever tried it with regular Italian dressing...let me know how it turns out!

Third, I HIGHLY recommend using the low setting for cooking...it allows the juices from the chicken to really seep into the dressing.

I threw this together from what I had in my pantry at the time. With proper planning, I'd use fat-free soup and sour cream. It is delicious as-is, but fat could certainly stand to be cut.

You can put the chicken into the slow cooker while still frozen, so prep time is virtually non-existent! A great choice to throw in before bed for lunch at work or in the morning for that night's dinner.

This recipe calls for two pounds of chicken, also because it was what I had available (three large breasts), but would make a great meal with just one pound, too.

I served this along with brown rice and black beans. Tasty!

Very Good 4.6/5

The perfect way to make mashed potatoes for a family gathering. Can be partially prepared aheaad of time and finished the day of the gathering. Holds well for extended periods of time if you stir periodically to avoid drying around the edges. As a bonus, this version is lower in calories and fats than the traditional version.

Slow Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup
Very Good 4.6/5

This is an adaptation of my favorite chicken tortilla soup recipe. If you have the calories to spare, make some tortilla chips in the oven to eat with the soup and top with a bit of sour cream, cheese, avocado and anything else you like! It is very flavorful on it's own, though. Be sure to use high-quality enchilada sauce, as some brands can be greasy. I like to add other veggies in sometimes, such as carrots and squash.

This is a dish I came up with on my quest for low sodium meals for my boyfriend. I was in the mood for something Italian... it turned out very moist and flavorful. Leftovers freeze well.

This is traditionally a very fatty food that is extremely popular at Mormon funerals. My husband had been asking for the recipe for the longest time and when I finally found it I was astonished at how bad for you it really was. So I took the recipe and modified it to make it a tad bit healtier, but remeber this is a total comfort food dish and should be ate in moderation. ENJOY!

This is based on lots of recipes, but I could find nothing that fit what I wanted and what I had. Sort of a chili/stew/thick soup. Over noodles, rice or in a bowl. Garnish with FF sour cream, cheese or salsa. Nice for cold day.
