Hints & Tips
Below we added some of our communities most common hints and tips. We hope you find them useful.
Cool within 2 hours of cooking, then divide the cooked recipe into individual servings and freeze immediately.
We recommend a reduced-fat cream cheese rather than a fat-free one here. The result is a little richer and stands up better to reheating if you plan on batch cooking this recipe.
Use sundried tomatoes (they won’t need cooking but will be much higher in calories) instead of fresh tomatoes, or pork steak instead of chicken.

If I wanted to use pork instead of chicken, what pork would be best? thanks!
HollyWednesday 30th March 2022
Hey Eve, the creamy sauce from the Creamy Tuscan Chicken would work well with pork loin steaks or pork chops, hope that helps!

Could this be adapted to be prepared in a slow cooker?
HollyMonday 10th January 2022
Hey Nicola, We haven’t given this recipe a slow cooker method because of the way the cream cheese could separate or curdle. Members of our facebook community have tried it but it is not something we have tested, if you would like more information on how to convert a recipe to the slow cooker have a look at THIS article, hope that helps!

Hi just a quick question alot of your recipes have cream cheese in I love cheese but husband doesn’t can you please advise of what to use instead
HollyMonday 3rd January 2022
Hi Irene, you can substitute cream cheese for quark, crème fraîche, mascarpone or in some recipes Greek yoghurt. Hope that helps!

Can I make the Creamy Tuscan Chicken in the morning – cover and store in the cold oven, then heat up for a meal at 6 in the evening?
HollyWednesday 15th December 2021
Hey Sandra, Yes you can reheat this recipe from chilled, pop in the microwave or oven until piping hot. Hope that helps!
