Since having kids, i'm not great with making shopping lists or following recipes. My shopping trips are a little hectic & I tend to get home with a random assortment half the time. Anyway, our small pantry was starting to fill up with cans of food I buy & forgot why I did. So, lately, I've been trying new crock pot recipes using what's in the pantry. A few weeks ago I came up with this recipe. We loved it! I've made it two more times to make sure it wasn't a fluke. This is a new favorite in our house & it's easy & healthy. You could make it healthier by going with low sodium chicken broth or just use water.
It's just a few ingredients & takes just a few minutes to prepare.
Crock Pot Chicken & Diced Tomatoes
Ingredients:
Uncooked Boneless Chicken Breasts
1 Cup Chicken Broth
1 Cup Water
Pepper
A few whole garlic cloves
1 onion peeled & cut in half
1 Can Diced Tomatoes with Italian Seasoning.
If you have a regular can of diced tomatoes, you could just add some italian seasonings in instead.
Directions: Add all ingredients to the crock pot & cook on high for about 4 hrs. I serve the chicken with a scoop of the diced tomatoes on top! It's great over pasta or with a side of couscous.
Enjoy!
Yum! That recipe sounds great! I'm definitely trying this soon!

Yum, so simple, so fun. I love it. :) I will substitute kidney beans for the chicken as we are a (mostly) meatless family.
ReplyDeleteI also blog about the family lifestyle at www.forevertogetherfamily.blogspot.com if you are interested.
Thanks for all you awesome Mom's do to perpetuate the positive aspects of parenting, and advocating fun at home. :)
Take care!

This sounds great, I love crockpot meals! Thanks for sharing, friend, I'm off to pin it now! :)
ReplyDeleteThat sounds great! I do things like that with my crock pot too. Especially when I take meat out of the fridge and suddenly have no idea what to do with it. :) Thanks for stopping by from the Great Blog Train Hop. :) Have a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteYum! That sounds right up my alley (and I've been looking for more crockpot recipes too since I recently purchased one!). Thanks for stopping by my blog, I love the idea you have here partnering up with a friend - looking forward to reading more!

ReplyDeleteI have so many cans of diced tomatoes in my pantry, it's ridiculous. I guess I know how I'll be getting rid of some of them now :)
ReplyDeleteHave you tried cooking it on low for 8 hours?
ReplyDeleteI can relate all too well about the random ingredients that I come home with after shopping with kids. Somehow I never have everything for a whole recipe! Glad I'm not the only one!
