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.

This is a favorite at my house. It's not the healthiest but once in a while it's o.k. I usually serve it with a tossed salad.

Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken Soup
Good 3.5/5

Did you know that just three buffalo wings have 10 grams of fat? (Who eats just three?) This soup has all the spice, creaminess, and tang you crave--with a fraction of the fat.

Healthy, Fruity Breakfast Hand Tarts
Very Good 4.3/5

Ditch the toaster pastry. They're loaded with sugar and fat--and not much else. My hand tarts are full of fruit, and if you make them ahead of time your kids can grab them and go.

Petite Pecan Tarts
Very Good 4.5/5

Garden Fresh Lasagna
Very Good 4.5/5

I love rich, cheesy lasagna, but in the summer when vegetables are at their peak, cheese overwhelms the dish. Adding plenty of fresh vegetables to your regular lasagna for a healthy, light summer supper. Omit any vegetables you don't like, and swap for what you've got in your fridge. (Add spinach or any other green, more fresh tomatoes, mushrooms, chopped and steamed broccoli or asparagus... the possibilities are endless.)
