Crockpot Italian Chicken

This was a meal that I had found on pinterest AGES ago and thought it would be perfect for a day when I work 5-1 and Yuta works days, because I can put it on right when I get home and it should be perfect timing for when he finished.  AND I WAS RIGHT!!
Here is the SUPER simple recipe, just perfect for those nights when you can't be bothered to cook a big meal, but want something filling at the same time!

Ingredients:
~4 Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
~1 Pkg Italian salad dressing mix (dry)
~1 Pkg cream cheese (250g/ 8oz - softened)
~2 Cans cream of chicken soup (I recommend finding a low sodium option as Yuta said it was a TAD salty)

That's it!  Only 4 Ingredients!
                            
Directions:
1) Place your chicken breasts in the bottom of the crockpot and sprinkle the packet of Italian dressing over the chicken.
2) In a medium saucepan, combine the cans of cream of chicken and cream cheese.  Whisk smooth and heat through.  Pour over chicken.
3) Cook on LOW for 4-6 hours.  When finished, serve over rice or pasta.  
                          
                         
This is the delicious finished product!  Even my DAD said it was VERY GOOD!  And for my dad to say anything about my cooking, he must mean what he says.

Bon Appetit!
