    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.

    I made this and it came out fantastic. Everyone loved it. Thanks!

    Super Easy Chicken

    4-5 Frozen skinless boneless chicken breast
    1 package dry Italian dressing mix
    1 cup warm water or fat free chicken broth

    place chicken in bottom of Crockpot, sprinkle dressing mix over chicken then pour water or broth over chicken. Cover and cook on low 8-10 hours.

    ---You can put whole chicken and turkey in frozen or thawed without precooking.
    Cook a whole defrosted chicken...rinse it, take out the stuff inside the chicken, rub whatever dry seasoning on that you prefer, I use Mrs dash, place on top of 5 balls of wadded up foil. This keeps the chicken from sticking to the bottom of the crock pot..I usually set it on high and go to work, so I'm not sure on exact hours probably 6? By the time I get home the chicken is falling off the bone! No added oil, butter or even stock, just your chicken and dry seasoning. You can serve it with veggies, next day as tacos, or on top of a salad or whatever...very easy and you'll have yummy chicken to be creative with for a couple of days :)

    Saw both of these on Part 1 and thought they were both great ideas! Somehow this thread got lost, but now it's found!!:wink::laugh:

    The top recipe works great with the balled up foil underneath! You can also take potatoes (wrapped in foil or not, either way works fine) and toss them underneath the Chicken. Works great and then you have nearly a complete meal, minus the greens!:tongue:

    I've also sliced up oranges and tossed them in the cavity of the chicken before cooking along with onion. Sliding some underneath the skin of the raw chicken really gives it a wonderful flavor as well.

    Smells wonderful and all done when you get home!:drinker: :bigsmile:
