Cream Cheese Chicken: A Soothing (AND EASY) Meal for the Cancer Patient (Or Anyone, Really)

Picture from a Google Search. The recipe is mine, however.

Easy is where it's at when you're trying to make wholesome meals and be on chemo. Eating out too much is just not good, period. And cooking for yourself has a number of mental and physical health benefits. For me, it's all about slow-cooking. I've had this recipe for a long time, and while it may appear to be unhealthy, it actually isn't at all, and can be easily tweaked to reflect more health-conscious ingredients. Did I mention it's easy???









CREAM CHEESE CHICKEN 

• 1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 stick butter (or half butter, half chicken stock)
• 1 envelope dry Italian dressing (Good Seasonings)
• 1 8oz. package cream cheese (you can use light cream cheese)
• 1 can Cream of Chicken and Mushroom soup (or any Cream of Chicken soup)
• 1 8-12oz. jar mushrooms, drained

1. Place chicken in a slow cooker with butter and dry Italian dressing. Cook on low 6-8 hours.
2. During last hour of cooking, add remaining ingredients. Stir well before serving.
3. Serve over Basmati or brown rice and with broccoli for a healthy meal.
