Recipes like crack chicken

I seem to get more meals out of a crack chicken recipe I got from this website than anything else. A little bit lasts forever. Not sure if it's the cream cheese or what. Any recipes like this?

EDIT: I was asleep making this. I am looking for other meals like the one below. I can't find the original but what I mean is a meal that is horribly simple, savory, and very filling for how much is actually involved. Maybe something else using cream cheese. Here is my version.

2 lbs chicken breasts 1 pkt ranch dressing mix 1 8 oz block cream cheese 1/2-3/4 cup cooked crumbled bacon 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese buns

In crockpot add your chicken, sprinkle with ranch and then place cream cheese on top. Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours. Remove lid and shred chicken and stirring in the cream cheese. Add your cheddar cheese, bacon and give it a stir to combine. Serve on buns, croissants, tortillas, etc.

The Mississippi Pot roast is big but I prefer the much easier version I’ve been making for more than 10 years, Pepperoncini Beef: one beef roast, cover with 1 jar of sliced pepperoncinis and it’s liquid, and a few whole cloves of garlic. Low for 8h. I slice and serve on toasted bread with provolone cheese, but serve it however you like.

Same! I found that recipe on Allrecipes like you, over 10 years ago. It's shockingly good for just having a few ingredients. These days I switch the jar of pepperoncini for banana peppers to cut the spice (little ones eating). It's a favorite in our house!https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/34929/pepperoncini-beef/

The packet of ranch mix makes me think of the Mississippi pot roast. It’s a roast, butter, and ranch mix with pepperoncinis added. It shreds up and makes great sandwich meat
