CROCK POT CORDON BLEU

This recipe is best when you use smoked ham and pound out the chicken as thin as you can possibly get it. The smoked ham adds so much flavor not only to the chicken, but the sauce as well.

Ingredients:
3 Chicken Breasts
Deli Sliced Smoked Ham
Deli Sliced Cheese (Swiss, Mozzarella, or Provolone)
1 large can Cream of Chicken Soup
1/4 cup Milk

Directions:
1. Pound your chicken breasts flat. The easiest way for me to do this is by beating the chicken with your rolling pin. Roll it to about 1/2 inch in thickness, but if you can get it even thinner...even better!

2. Lay the ham on top of the chicken to cover it completely. You will need 1-2 slices of deli ham to cover it depending on the size of the slice. Lay down the cheese on top of the ham. Roll up the chicken with the ham and cheese inside and put a few tooth picks in it keep it from unrolling.

3. Put your rolled chicken in your crock pot and then sprinkle it with seasonings of your choice.

4. In a bowl, mix your milk and soup and then pour it over your chicken in the crock pot.

5. Cook your chicken on low for about 4 hours. Serve with a side dish (potatoes, rice, egg noodles...)

CREAM CHEESE CHICKEN

This is another great recipe I got from Allen's family. I shared it with my family and they all loved it so much. It is really easy and nice to throw in the crock pot and not have to think about it. It has so much flavor. You will love it!

Ingredients:
3 Chicken Breasts
2 Cans Cream of Chicken Soup
1/4 Cup Apple Juice
1/2 Packet of Italian Dressing Mix
4 oz Cream Cheese
1/3 Cup Sour Cream
Egg Noodles or Rice

Directions:

1. Wash your chicken breasts and cut them into thick strips. I normally cut each breast into 3 equal strips. Put them in the bottom of your small crock pot.

2. Pour on top of your chicken the soup, apple juice, and 1/2 the italian packet (the italian packet is one of those packets to make italian dressing, like how they sell those ranch packets). Stir everything around in your crock pot and then put the lid on it. Cook on low for about 6 hours.

3. A half hour before everything is done in the crock pot, put in your cream cheese and sour cream. Stir this around well and put the lid back on for the remaining 30 minutes.

4. Boil your noodles (you can make rice instead if your prefer) and then drain the water.

5. Serve your chicken and sauce over your noodles.

**If you are using a large crock pot, you may want to double the batch so that everything doesn't burn...but beware, it will make a lot!
