Makes (8) 1 C servings (6 pts)

2 chicken breasts or 5-6 tenders
1 pkg. Italian dressing mix (dry in packet)
1 pkg. 1/3 less fat cream cheese
1 10 oz can 98% fat free Cream of Mushroom
1 pkg. or less bow tie noodles boiled and drained

Place chicken in a crock-pot with just enough water to cover the bottom of the pot. Sprinkle with seasonings and cook on low 6-8 hrs or until chicken is cooked through. Chop chicken with plastic spatula so it wont scratch the bottom of your crock-pot. Add cream cheese and mushroom soup. Cover and melt together. Boil noodles-drain and add to crock-pot. Mix well and serve.
You may add milk if sauce is too thick. I like to add Parmesan cheese for a nice flavor. Serve with salad and garlic bread if desired. To make more saucy reduce the amount of noodles used or add milk. I often like to use a packet and a half of seasoning to make the sauce a bit stronger. I love this recipe.
