Crockpot Creamy Italian Chicken

I'm not really sure how I'm the last one to know about this recipe?!  But on the off chance that you guys have not tried it, I'm passing it along!  

I'm all about meals that are easy to prepare...you get bonus points for being able to throw it in a slow cooker.  This recipe is not only easy, it's creamy and super yummy.  I found this recipe on several different websites, but I ended up using the recipe from one of my fav bloggers...Christy from The Girl Who Ate Everything.  You can see her original post HERE!   I also used the bowtie pasta becuase I think it's prettier than other pastas :)

4 Chicken Breasts  (I used tenderloin strips because it's what I had on hand. One package has about 10 strips)

1 Packet Dry Zesty Italian Dressing Mix  (trust me...use the zesty!!)

1-8oz Pkg Cream Cheese, Softened

1-2 Cans Cream Of Chicken Soup  (I used 1.5 cans)

Place chicken is slow cooker and sprinkle whole packet of italian seasoning over it.  Combine cream cheese and cream of chicken soup in small pot over low heat.  Let cheese melt and pour over chicken.  Cover and cook on low for at least 4 hours.  When ready to eat, take out chicken and shred with forks.  Place back in slow cooker and stir to combine.  Serve over pasta or rice.  If you feel your sauce is too thick, you can thin it to desired consistency with a little milk.
