Slow Cooker Vegetarian Chili
Very Good 4.5/5

The secret to this hearty vegetarian chili is butternut squash. It holds its shape and adds a layer of flavor and sweetness.

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 found this recipe online and it sounded so good I just had to try it. If you want more of a crust, you will need to increase the amount of Bisquick you add, this amount just helped thicken the pudding.

It takes us way too long to use up a bottle of salad dressing, so I went looking for one to use up the Catalina we opened (before DH insists it's expired and we have to throw it out! LOL!) This is a crock pot version of one I found at Kraft.

great for your own variation! change/add veggies or the amount of chicken.
i made this from taking ideas from 2 other recipes.
very yummy. i used only 2 chicken breasts when i made it, because i have such a small slow cooker and there was ALOT of sauce, so you can add more chicken with out changing the amount of other ingredients. the nutrient info is for 3 chicken breasts, 5 servings. i served this over whole wheat pasta ( not included in the calculations) there is plenty of this with just 2 chicken breasts. might also go well over rice or egg noodles. you can also use a whole 8 oz of fat free or 1/3 fat cream cheese, i did half and half (as is the nutrition info)
