Slow Cooker Recipe – Creamy Italian Chicken

Hello All!

I am updating a recipe I shared on my “Recipes” page. We eat “Creamy Italian Chicken” 3-4 times a month and it has changed a little since I posted it. It is such an easy and inexpensive dish to make. AND I think is absolutely delicious!

Creamy Italian Broccoli Chicken (slow cooker)

Ingredients (3 to 4 servings):

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb.)
6 oz cream cheese
1 packet of Italian or Ranch dressing seasoning
1 – 10.5 oz can condensed Cream of Chicken soup
1 cup milk or water (1 canfull)
2 cups of chopped broccoli crowns

Directions:

1. Place chicken breasts in slow cooker. Put cubed cream cheese on top of chicken.
2. Mix milk, soup and dressing packets together, then pour over chicken.
3. Cook until no longer pink. 3-4 hours on high, or 7-8 hours on low.
4. Remove chicken from slow cooker and shred with forks.
5. Use a whisk to blend the chunky Cream cheese cubes into the soup mix. (The sauce may still be lumpy)
6. Add chopped broccoli to slow cooker and turn setting to high. (I prefer to steam broccoli separately.)
7. While broccoli is softening up, cook rice, quinoa, or pasta accordingly.
8. Serve chicken and broccoli over rice, quinoa, or pasta. (We like angel hair pasta!)

My family of three (Husband, Me, 5-yr old) eats half and freezes the other half for another meal. It stretches and is so good! Give it a try!

Happy Wednesday!

Stupid Chair!

Life is crazy busy right now with the holidays, work, family. One thing I DON’T need is my work chair messing with me. Lol! 🙂

As I sit sewing a sock monkey on my machine, my chair drops me down a tad bit. I stop, feeling the descent. I start sewing again. Boop! I drop down just a bit more. Now I KNOW I felt it that time. Ok, fine. Let’s get this monkey done, already. Boop! Boop! I am practically sitting on the floor now. For the love of Pete! One more distraction.

Stupid Chair!

Break over, that is my funny little rant for the day! Back to making sock monkeys.

Have a wonderful Thursday!

Machine Sewing Day – Day 15

The countdown continues: 15 days until “Fall Fair to Remember”. It is machine sewing day. I need to crank out some work on the machine, so I will make today’s post brief. I am taking a short break and then back to work before I pick up DD from preschool. Almost nothing gets done after that, Lol!

Best snack EVER!

Need some thinking food and generic cinnamon crunch cereal is ideal. Love it! Thanks, Aldi!
