Crockpot Creamy Italian Chicken

This is one of those recipes that most people who use a slow cooker, already know because it is so good & so simple.  There are several spin off versions & this is the one we use & love.  You can also change the italian flavors with a ranch packet, & it still tastes just as good.  Serve on your choice of rice or pasta. Love this recipe!
