    My cousin fed this to us when we were up in Virginia visiting her. I've made it several times and my mom made it at our Christmas party and for my grandparents. I ran this through the recipe thing on here, and it comes out to 265 calories a serving if there are 6 servings (which is approx a bowlful). The only person who doesn't like it is my sister, and that's because she doesn't like black beans.

    Cream Cheese Chicken Chili

    2-4 chicken breasts (I usually use 3 fresh, but can also be frozen)
    1 can corn, undrained
    1 can Rotel, undrained (I use Rotel diced tomatoes with green chiles)
    1 can black beans, drained & rinsed
    1 pkg ranch dressing mix
    1 tsp cumin
    1 tbsp chili powder
    1 tsp onion powder
    1 8 oz package cream cheese

    Lay chicken at the bottom of the crock pot. Drain and rinse black beans. Add black beans, corn, and Rotel on top. Add in spices and mix up. Lay cream cheese on top of it all and cover. Cook on low 6-8 hours. The cream cheese won't melt during the cooking process. When it's done, mix the cream cheese in and shred the chicken (which is super easy at this point).

    This all fits in my super tiny crock pot very nicely. I like to eat it by scooping it with blue corn tortilla chips! I have been considering adding in cayenne pepper to make it a bit spicier. It is very much on the mild side of my scale.


    Thanks for the recipes, the above one sounds like a winner!

    Frozen Boneless skinless Chicken, Italian dressing mix, chicken broth.. cook on low for 6 hrs . Remove the chicken and add some softened cream cheese let it melt and whisk together.. It makes an awesome gravy! Just put the chicken back into sauce and serve over brown rice or whole grain pasta.

    Not a recipe but I just got a desktop crock-pot for lunches. You can't cook in it (it only gets up to 165 degrees) but it's great for bringing lunch to work. It has a removable steel food container (20 ounces) with a lid that I carry between work and home. I leave the heating unit at work and just fill the food container with leftovers, pop in the container when I get to work and plug it in. At lunch I have a hot meal.

    The lid on the heating container screws on, so there isn't a smell from the food, my cube mates don't even know it's there.
