Ingredients
~3 lbs raw boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut in large chunks~2 cups fresh mushrooms, sliced~1 (8 oz) bottle Ken's Steak House Creamy Caesar Dressing (or other creamy Caesar dressing)~4 ounces Neufchatel cheese (low-fat cream cheese)~1 can (10.75 oz) cream of chicken soup~8 oz part skim mozzarella cheese, shredded
Directions
Pour bottle of Caesar dressing into crock pot.
Add chicken breast chunks and mushrooms, stir to coat, cover.
Cook on high for about 4 1/2 hours.
(There will be lots of liquid in crock pot at this point and you may remove about one cup of it if a thicker consistency is desired, but the next few ingredients will thicken it rather nicely.)
In bowl, mix together cream of chicken soup and softened cream cheese.
Stir soup/cream cheese mixture into chicken in crock pot gently.
Add mozzarella cheese, stir gently.
Cook another 1/2 hour until cheese is melted and mixture is hot.
Serve and enjoy!

Makes about 8 half cup servings.

    Thanks so much...just diagnosed with diabetes and having a hard time finding meals for eveyone to enjoy. This was top notch for dinner tonight...even the kids enjoyed it! Thanks so much for posting. - 12/30/08

    This was really good. I used shitaki & baby portabella mushrooms for more flavor. Next time I would use a 1/2 bottle of the Caesar dressing and omit the mozzarella cheese (only because it doesn't really add any flavor or consistency). - 5/23/12

    I've just started a lower-carb diet, and am trying out new recipes. I tried this last night. IT WAS SO, SO GOOD. So easy, so satisfying, just great. I served it over pureed cauliflower, with stir fry vegetables. I will be making this often. Thanks so much for a FABULOUS recipe! - 8/30/10

    Made a few tweaks. Added a head of broccoli, used a small bottle of light ceasar dressing, less chicken, used a little grated parmesan cheese (only thing I had on hand), 1 serano pepper. The serano pepper added a nice kick to the recipe. It was a hit in my house! - 8/7/12

    This was awesome. Everyone liked it, and said they all want it again tomorrow. To bad there is none left lol. Very good meal. - 10/8/13

    Loved it, would have given it 5 stars but I used a bit less dressing in recipe, otherwise a little too strong for my taste. My husband loves it and he is not low carb dieting! I just make him a bit of rice or mashed potatoes to go with! - 9/3/12

    Very good. Very easy. I did not add the cream of chicken soup however (too processed for me). If I wasn't low carbing, this would be excellent over mashed potatoes. - 8/27/11

    I'm such a fussy eater & half way through cooking I thought I wouldn't like it, but it was lovely! Even my children loved it & they're fussier than me! - 6/5/11
  • ARTELPH
    Fabulous! Only used 4 oz mozz cheese, but otherwise followed the recipe, cooked 4 hours then added the extra stuff. Husband loved it, wouldnt let me have his plate so I could put the vegetables on it because "it's too good!!" LOL! a keeper. used whole bottle kraft light ceasar dressing. - 7/13/10
  • CHRISTYSMITH
    very good - my husband loved it. the kids thought the caesar dsg gave it a slightly sour taste but still liked it. I just realized i forgot to add the cheese at the end. will definitely have to make sure I do that next time. - 1/5/09

    Very enjoyable, was pleasantly surprised that something creamy could be low carb - 4/1/18

    This is honestly one of my favorite things to eat! It only calls for 8 oz of ceaspr dressing so it's important to pay attention not to add to much. Instead of using canned condensed soup I make my own. First by making a roux of butter and flour then by adding chicken stock. - 1/8/18

    Very liquidy as you mentioned but so delicious - 1/13/15

    Tasty, but 500 calories is way too many for a 1/2 cup serving with no other parts to the meal, add some potatoes, rice or noodles and a veggie and it will be about 700-800 calories for the meal, more then half of the calories for the day, I can see places it could be cut back plus add more mushrooms - 12/14/14
  • CHELLLLL
    Excellent and so easy to do. I was not paying attention to the directions and added the soup with the dressing at start and then added cheese at end and it was still so good. Definitely making this again and again. - 9/15/13

    Very good, grandkids even ate the mushrooms. Though they could not see them LOL - 3/28/13

    Decided to try this for my ultra low crabbing daughter, but the rest of us had over noodles. Pretty good, although taking out the cup of liquid made it REALLY thick, I think I'd leave it in next time. - 1/23/13
