Crockpot cream cheese chicken

I stumbled on this recipe & thought I would give it a try. Normally I use boneless skinless chicken breast for just about EVERYTHING. However...with the price of meat on the rise, sometimes the bone-in-breast or whole chicken is way cheaper to use & buy. Especially on this type of recipe, so feel free to use what you have on hand. We had leftovers, so I froze the chicken mixture & added just a touch of stock. Tasted just as good as the first time! It was perfect when we got in from out of town at 4 & I needed to have a quick dinner.

Serves 6-8
Ingredients
1 1/2 lbs chicken pieces
2 Tablespoon of Italian seasoning
2 Tablespoons melted butter
1 Teaspoon onion powder
1 Teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/2 Teaspoon Pepper
1/2 Teaspoon Salt
(5 1/4 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
4 ounces cream cheese
1/4 cup chicken broth

Directions:  Set chicken into a crock pot set to low. Add all the seasonings and butter. Cook on low for 3-4 hours, you can shred the chicken at this point Add Cream of Chicken Soup, cream cheese, and chicken broth. Cook on low for an additional hour. Serves over noodles & of course with crusty bread! Enjoy
