Slow Cooker Chicken Dinner

For years my CrockPot sat around, rarely used, until I discovered how delicious the food can be when cooked in it.  I found this family favourite over in Allrecipes.



Ingredients

  • 6 medium red potatoes, cut into chunks
  • 4 medium carrots, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
  • 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted
  • 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 2 tablespoons mashed potato flakes (optional)

Directions:

Place potatoes and carrots in a slow cooker. Top with chicken. Combine the soups and garlic salt; pour over chicken. Cover an cook on low for 8 hours. To thicken if desired, stir potato flakes into the gravy and cook 30 minutes longer.
