Have you ever decided to make a dinner for your family, but then had serious doubts when it came time to make it? It happens to me all the time cause I like to try different things....I do not like to repeat too many things too often because I get bored easily.
Today, I made a meal that I was sure was going to flop and I was irritated with myself all day as I thought of the food I was wasting. Times are tough; money is lean. I just was not looking forward to it. Upon serving it to my family, I said "I have serious doubts about this meal." Now, to compensate...I made my kids' favorite side, zucchini chips, and some garlic toast.
Sierra was the first to try it and exclaimed that it was good....really good. "Really?", I exclaimed. Upon trying it myself, imagine my surprise that it was, indeed, good. And it was SIMPLE!!! AND.......it was made in the CROCKPOT!!! AND..........it was CHEAP!!! WHOA!!!!!!!
I did exactly as the recipe stated except I used frozen breasts and instead of 1/2 cup water in the stuffing portion, I used chicken broth. I will post my zucchini chips recipe at a later date...if I haven't already!! My kids LOVE them!!
I got the recipe from Pinterest....here is the original recipe here: crock pot recipe, take 1lb chicken (can be frozen), box of stuffing, 1 cup chicken broth, 1 can of cream of chicken, and 1/2 cup of water. layer bottom of crockpot with chicken, poor 1 cup of broth over chicken, mix box of stuffing with can of soup and 1/2 cup water and layer top of chicken with stuffing mix, cook 6-8 hours on low!
