  3. Stir in cream cheese and heat through.

Notes
To make in crock pot (slow cooker):
Combine hash browns, chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, onion, and black pepper. Cook in crock pot on low for 5 hours. Stir in cream cheese and cook for 30 minutes.

I use fat-free cream of chicken soup, low-fat cream cheese, and turkey bacon to cut the fat in this recipe.
