Wish me luck too. I’ll be submitting my linguine cream cheese chicken recipe. Basically everything tastes better with cream cheese. It’s my secret ingredient in lots of my favorite recipes. I use my Crock-Pot® as often as possible. There’s nothing wrong with playing the pizza card. You know, when you call up your husband to grab pizza on his way home from work. However, I can’t afford the calories or the cost of fast food. That’s where my Crock-Pot® saves the day and our waistlines on a frequent basis.

Total time
Recipe type: Crock-Pot® Chicken
Cuisine: linguine cream cheese chicken
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 1 chicken breast per person or 2 chicken tenders per person (frozen or thawed)
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup
- 4 oz. ⅓ less fat cream cheese (fat free is too soupy)
- 4 oz light sour cream
- ¼ cup red wine vinegar
- Garlic POWDER and pepper (to taste)
- Linguine pasta (or whatever pasta you have on hand)
- 1-2 Tablespoons butter
- French fried onions (optional)
Instructions
- Place frozen or thawed chicken in the crockpot. Sprinkle with garlic powder and pepper. Melt cream cheese in a bowl and mix with a can of cream of mushroom soup. Add ¼ cup red wine vinegar to soup mixture. (Wait on sour cream) Pour soup mixture over chicken in the crock-pot and heat on high for 4+ hours if frozen or low for 4+ hours if thawed. Whenever you chicken looks done, turn down to warm.
- When ready to serve, cook pasta as directed and toss with butter. Put chicken on top of pasta. Then add sour cream to the soup mixture in your crockpot and spoon over your chicken. Top with french fried onions (optional).
Notes
Wait to add the sour cream until the end or it will separate. The flavor remains the same, but it gets a bit clumpy. You can use light or full fat sour cream and cream cheese. Non-fat ingredients do make it too thin.

October 11, 2013 at 8:43 amWithout a doubt, my favorite recipe (& my family’s too) is my cube steak in the crock pot. Brown the beef cube steak. Put a layer of onions in the bottom of the crock, then start layering cube steak, onions & green pepper strips until you run out, ending with onions & green peppers. Add a can of crushed tomatoes over the top of this & then 2 jars of brown gravy. Cook on low 6 hours. Absolutely delicious. We serve it with mashed potatoes, corn on the cob & biscuits.

October 6, 2013 at 7:56 pmMy favorite crockpot recipe is for homemade chili that my husband absolutely adores. Unfortunately something was dropped on my crockpot cracking the ceramic insert so at the moment no chili or anything else in the slow cooker and I’d really love to win one as I use the slow cooker a lot and have been really missing it this last week. Another favorite recipe that I really love is for pulled chicken BBQ that is amazing. Thanks for the chance to win

September 28, 2013 at 12:11 pmI love my crockpot, but it can be hard to find vegetarian recipes that aren’t chili or bean soup. I do a red beans and rice: 7 cups water, 1 bag kidney beans, 1 chopped onion, 1 chopped green pepper, 2 cloves garlic, and salt & pepper. Cook on HIGH for 5 hours, then add 2 cups instant rice and wait 15 min. I like mine with sour cream and shredded cheese, husband likes his with lots of hot sauce.
