Love this! So easy to make and tastes great! It a nice crock pot recipe t0 put on later in day -incase you realize it is noon and you haven't thought of dinner yet!! I usually serve it with broccoli. I leave out the mushrooms. I also double the recipe so we have leftovers for the next day. My 9 year olds favorite dish! He askes for it weekly :)

My family really enjoyed this dish. I can't have dairy, so I took out my piece of chicken after it cooked for 3 hours and then added some Tofutti dairy-free cream cheese. I used fresh mushrooms that were grilled the night before and seved it over rice with sugar snap peas. Delicious!

This is a very easy recipe that's good for company. I take the chicken out when I add the cream cheese mixture, cut it up and let it warm through. I seem to recall a version of this recipe that was published years ago that included sliced black olives. I put those in sometimes, too.
