Creamy Italian Chicken

This is another of our family's all time favorites.  It's hard to go wrong with a tasty creamy sauce, pasta and chicken.  It's great to feed large groups, it's EASY and it's crock pot friendly!  Crock pots are amazing and probably my favorite kitchen essential.  Start dinner early and enjoy the afternoon knowing dinner is already done!

2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts

1/2 cup water
1 Italian salad dressing seasoning packet (dry)

1 can cream of mushroom soup

8 oz. cream cheese, softened or Neufchatel cheese

Trim fat off chicken and cut breasts in half length wise. Spray bottom and sides of slow cooker with cooking spray. Pour in water and put in chicken. Sprinkle chicken with Italian salad dressing packet (dry) over chicken. Cook on high for 2-3 hours. 

In small mixing bowl mix soup and cream cheese together, pour over chicken. Cook on high for an additional hour.  Stir before serving. Serve with linguine, fettuccine, wide egg noodles, any other pasta or even rice. Serves 6.
