Slow Cooker Creamy Chicken and Red Potatoes

If found a recipe online and tweaked it. I do love tweaking. :) This dish doesn't look pretty, but my kids LOVED it. My husband and I went back for seconds. It's filling with a smooth, soft flavor that sticks to the ribs. Serves 4. Serve with a green salad or steamed vegetable.

Slow Cooker Creamy Chicken and Red Potatoes

2 lb red potatoes, cut into cubes
1 c chicken broth
8 oz Neufchatel cheese, or 1/3 less fat cream cheese
3 Tbsp fresh chives, diced
1 tsp garlic salt
1 10-oz can cream of potato soup
1 envelope Ranch-style dressing mix
1 lb chicken breasts (2 breasts), cut into strips

Garlic salt and pepper for seasoning, optional

1. Place potatoes in slow cooker. Cover with chicken broth.
2. In medium bowl, beat together cheese, chives, garlic salt, soup, and Ranch dressing. Stir in chicken strips and spread over potatoes.
3. Cover and cook on Low 8 hours, or until potatoes are tender. Stir once after 2-3 hours, again after 5-6 hours, and before serving. Season with garlic salt and/or pepper, if desired for flavor.
