Very Good 4.6/5 (392 ratings) 5 ingredient soup My mom gave me this recipe. She eats it daily. It is very tasty! I started losing weight after adding it to my regular diet. Sometimes I add hot sauce to spice it up a bit! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

Very Good 4.5/5 (1071 ratings) Slow Cooker Creamy Italian Chicken 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.
