I must be bored today because I just joined a Crockpot Cooking Challenge. It only requires a minimum of one crockpot meal a week - think I can handle that. Maybe I'll find a new recipe to add to my collection for this winter - when I actually do use my crockpot.

Here is Monday's recipe: It comes from the Low Carb Friends Website.

Crockpot Chicken Breasts in Italian Cream Sauce

Recipe By : Pugsbest
Serving Size : 4

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 chicken breast halves without skin
1 package Good Seasons Italian salad dressing mix
1/4 cup sherry
1/2 cup water
8 ounces cream cheese

Put chicken breasts in crock pot and sprinkle Italian salad dressing mix on top, add about 1/4 cup sherry and 1/2 cup water. Let cook on low aprox 3-4 hours if thawed and 6-8 hours if frozen. Remove chicken breasts and set aside. Add cream cheese, cut into chunks, and heat until cheese has melted. Stir with wire whisk to incorporate cream cheese better. Return chicken breasts to crock pot until heated through. Can be served over steamed broccoli.

Hahaha. Think I'm kinda in the same boat. I live alone so I don't cook often and after a while leftovers tend to lose their appeal:( Hopefully I can come up with something every week but really I'm looking for recipes to add since I use my crockpot more often in the colder months. Good luck to both of us! ♥Ruby

Sounds yummy. I love crock pot recipies. That's about the only actual cooking I do. Otherwise I mostly eat pre-packaged stuff---soups, frozen meals (lean cuisine, weight watchers--not the high fat stuff). I may have to check out that crock pot challenge.
