I love being organized and planned out. My days are much less hectic and frantic. Last week during game night, a friend of mine made fun of this personality trait, but he can mock all he wants. Running a family of 8, most of the time on my own while my hubby travels, takes A LOT of planning and organization. Our family would fall to pieces without it. A bit obsessive-compulsive, yes. A complete necessity, yes!

Started this before work and upon my return could smell the delicous aromas before I even put my key in the door! I was very generous with the garlic powder, dehydrated onion flakes(no onion powder on- hand), salt and pepper. Makes me think of the quote… “I love you like salt loves chicken!” You can never go wrong when throwing in a few extra shakes of salt to chicken… LOL. Anyway, I also added just a little bit of water which didn’t quite make it to the top of the last layer of chicken. It should be noted to use the CREAMY Ceasar dressing rather than the oily. I read posts on another site where this recipe was featured and the creamy version was preferred and recommended by those who posted in comments. An absolutely delicious dish that I will definitely be making quite often!! Thanks so much for sharing!!

So delicious! We also toasted the buns with garlic butter on them, and made them taste like croutons 🙂 my husband is not the biggest fan of chicken in the crockpot, but he is now finishing his seconds. Thank you, I found your blog Saturday, and 2 new meals from you have been added to this week, and I have so many more to try.

Loved it. I used half chicken stock and half water in my crockpot. This helped me to use less salt. Glad I read the comments…toasted bun was a great addition! Thanks for posting.
