OMG it's Tofu Queso (95 Calories 6 Carb) MUST TRY
Very Good 4.5/5

I modified this from the Ellen Show (10-05-10). Made it for the Superbowl and put it out with the "other" queso. It ran out first. It's a great faux cheese for nachos. The uses are endless. You can add anything to it... Don't forget to add your chips to your tracker. ;-)

Kids love this!!
To make this recipe healthier you could try to use some type of light butter or spread. I should try it but I just don't really trust the recipe to come out good. I just stick with using my organic butter because I don't know enough about all these spreads and stuff. If you find a substitute for the butter that works for you...please let me know!

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.
