Taste of Tuesday:Creamy Fire Roasted Tomato Chicken

I'm linking up again this week with the Taste of Tuesday gals! I found this recipe yet again on Pinterest and its made my favorite way-in the Crock pot! Its called Creamy Fire Roasted Tomato Chicken and you can find the original post at Momables.com. You all know how much I love my Crock pot so this recipe was screaming for me to try it. I got the best compliment from my hubby after serving this. He said "that was good, tastes like we just ate at a restaurant." Even though I didn't create the recipe, I love hearing that my cooking is enjoyed!
What you need:
1-1.5 lb chicken breasts
28 oz can crushed tomatoes
14 oz can fire roasted tomatoes
16 oz bag frozen corn
8 oz cream cheese (I used low fat)
1 cup of milk (tip: don't use skim!)
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
I also added garlic powder, onion powder and a small of amount of crushed red pepper.
What to do:
Add all ingredients to Crock pot and set on high for 4-6 hours. I cooked it on low for about 8.
It didn't look very appealing at this point but it sure started to make the apartment smell good!
Shred chicken and stir back into sauce. Serve over bowtie pasta or whatever your favorite is!
Delish! The best part is, there was a ton of chicken/sauce leftover so I froze a container for the next time I need a quick dinner!
 
See you guys on Thursday for a special guest post at Life According to Steph where I share my love of pickles!

  1. That looks awesome. I might make that on Monday to freeze. I like having something in the freezer that I can pull out for a quick dinner.
