Crockpot Chicken and Sausage

This was a happy experiment. I needed to get dinner together for everyone and had no idea what to do. Had some chicken, some smoked sausage, started looking online for ideas. This is what I ended up with.

Four chicken quarters, skin and extra fat cut off
One pound smoked polish sausage, sliced lengthwise, then sliced into bite-sized pieces
One bell pepper, seeded and chopped
One large onion, chopped
One package fresh sliced mushrooms
One can low=fat cream of mushroom soup
One package low-fat cream cheese
One tablespoon Slap Ya Mama Cajun seasoning
Three to four cups cooked white or brown rice

I used a large 5-quart crock pot.

Chicken in first, then seasoning, then all other ingredients piled in on top. Cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours. Can also be made in large pot on top of the stove or in the oven.

Cook until chicken is done. Serve over rice.

This would also be quite good with about half the chicken and a can of white beans (rinsed and drained) added instead.
