JACK IN THE CROCK

2 10 oz.can of cream of Cream of Mushroom
1 16 oz.tub of sour cream
8-12 chicken breast
2-4 cups Monterrey Jack Cheese (I use pepper jack cheese because we love the spice)
1 pound of Mushrooms if you like them

This is one of my husbands favorites he grew up eating however we have changed the name for our pure entertainment! If you want to make the chicken look fancy just brown both sides before you toss them in to your crock pot.

In a saucepan over stove top melt the Cheese with the sour cream and Cream of Mushroom Soup.
This happens fast so keep stirring.  TRUST me on this step you will not want to just put it all in the crock pot because in fact the cheese will not melt.

Remove from heat, layer chicken breast in crock pot then spread some cheesy sauce over the top
Then continue to layer until the sauce is gone. If you would like to add  mushrooms, One hour before your chicken is done add the mushrooms. Or if you are like me and cannot be bothered to calculate I just saute them in a pan with a little butter and toss them in before I serve.

Cover and cook in crock pot on high for 4hrs or low for 6 hrs. Serve over rice or potatoes.

This is one of our family's favorites.  It is great for entertaining and so delicious.   I will often make black beans and salsa to go with it. We also love a little sour cream,fresh slices of avocado and jack cheese.  It is best to us the Grande Burrito size tortilla when you load up this massive taste of goodness.
Thank you to my sweet Cousin Jan whom first fed it to us over a wonderful family dinner.
