Cream Cheese Chicken Recipe

8 oz cream cheese
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 packet Italian dressing (or use Italian seasoning and garlic salt)

Blend all together. Then pour over 5 chicken breasts (I only used 4 in a batch that I quadrupled!!) in a crockpot on low for 4-5 hours. Serve over rice or noodles.

I also added shredded carrots and zucchini and it tasted really good together, plus added extra veggies into the meal easily. served other night over egg noodles and that was yummy. I liked this recipe because it didn't call for butter which a lot of other cream cheese chicken recipes I have do, and they always turn out really greasy. I had some cream cheese that was close to date and needed to be used. But this really is a great one to make extra of and freeze flat in quart ziplock bags for future meals.

Reasons to use coupons

Great article if you've wondered about starting to use coupons but aren't sure if it would be worth it or a common reason people give for not using them, "they are never for things I use or it's only processed, unhealthy stuff." (not true!)

Ocean/Sea Animals Lesson

Homemade fishing poles: fish cutouts, floss, cut up squares of magnets (saved from random places/front of phone books, etc.), sticks from outside!

Craft: Painted sea creatures printout with water colors. The kids had a great time painting and were occupied much longer than I expected! This is always a favorite activity.

Snack: apple slices and sea creatures cheese crackers (I thought they tasted good but most of the kids didn't like them; they were only $1 at Buy Low and a no-name brand. But they were cute and theme-related!)
