Chicken Stroganoff

I got this recipe from Sarah, who got it from our roommate Kristi, who got it from her mom . . . don't know the origins beyond this. You can add onions and mushrooms if you want, but I rarely take the time.

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed

1/3 cup margarine
1 packet italian dressing mix (dry)

Combine above in crockpot and cook on high for 2-3 hours until chicken is cooked. Mix together and add:

1 8-oz package cream cheese
1 cup milk
1 can cream of mushroom soup

Cook for another 30 to 60 minutes.

**This recipe is totally flexible. I rarely worry about using that much chicken. I usually use about half the cream cheese so it's lower calorie and it's still totally delicious and rich enough. Lately I've been putting in the chicken without cubing it, letting it cook, and then cutting it up. Mostly that's so I don't have to deal with raw chicken because sometimes I hate raw chicken, but it seems to work really well. (note by Sarah)
