Scrumptious in the Slow Cooker

This was a bit of an impromptu, late in the day creation, but it was so delicious that I just had to share!

Creamy and Zesty Chicken
Ingredients
2 lbs cubed raw chicken breast (about 4 boneless chicken breasts)
4 oz. neufchatel cheese
1 can cream of chicken condensed soup (though if you prefer cream of mushroom, I bet that'd be good too)
1/4 cup wine (red or white, you choose, gives it some zip)
1/4 cup zesty Italian dressing
1 lb thin spaghetti

Put the cubed chicken into the slow cooker. Whisk together the cheese, soup, wine and dressing and pour this mixture over the chicken. Cook on high for 2-3 hours or low for 4-5. Cook the pasta just before serving and pour the sauce and chicken on top.

Note: This would be a great dish for a dinner party; really simple and totally luscious. The ingredients listed above serve 4-5, but there was plenty of extra sauce so you could easily add another breast or two. Also, if you wanted to fancy it up, you could garnish with parsley.

Everyone in my house loved this, even my eldest who is the finickiest eater ever!
