    Cream Cheese Chicken Chili - this was easy and I loved it, it was even better the next day
    http://www.plainchicken.com/2012/01/slow-cooker-cream-cheese-chicken-chili.html

    Changes to original: I used only 1/2 of the cream cheese (added at the end), I only used 2tsp of the the ranch mix, I cut down on the cumin and chili powder slightly (since I knew cutting down on the cream cheese would make the spices more potent, go for it all if you like it spicy)

    What I would change next time: I love everything about this recipe except the sodium. I'm definitely going to look for low sodium beans and rotel (or cook my own beans). I will probably use frozen corn and a little extra water, since I always have frozen vegetables on hand. I also used frozen chicken breast, which has a much higher sodium content, so fresh would be a better option.

    Crock Pot Honey Chicken - another easy recipe that even pleased my picky eaters
    http://ctworkingmoms.com/2012/02/02/tasty-thursday-crock-pot-honey-chicken/

    Changes to original: I used about 1/2 of the sauce while cooking the chicken, when it was done, I poured off the liquid in the crock pot and added the rest of the sauce. That way I didn't have all of the fat, and watered down sauce, and I still had enough sauce for serving.

    What I would change next time: not necessarily a change, but I use chicken thighs (personal preference). Next time I am going to try split chicken breast ( think bone in would work much better for this recipe than boneless skinless).

    We do the Crockpot Mexican chicken with

    chicken tenders
    1 jar salsa - we like Frontier brand
    1 can low salt black beans, drained

    cook in crockpot on high, after about 2 hours remove the chicken and shred with forks, return and continue cooking so the chicken soaks up all those flavors.

    I usually eat it on a flour tortilla, my daughter and SIL make nachos out of if.

    Top as you like and as you have the calories/carbs/fats.

    Yummy
