![[EASY SLOWCOOKER RECIPE]🥘
Now that my 3 kids are back to school, and activities are in full swing, it’s SO important as a busy mom, that I have nutritious and easy-to-prepare dinners ready to go on weeknights. I often turn to my slowcooker, because I can toss the ingredients in after school drop off and not worry about it for the rest of the day! Even better? When the slow cooker meal is so delicious that my kids devour it!🙌
I love that this recipe makes 6-7 servings, so that we can make it last for two meals. You can also double it to make it last longer, and freeze the leftovers for future busy nights!😉
[AD]As a dietitian, I also love that this recipe is nutritionally balanced, and contains Canadian-raised chicken! And I’m excited to feature it here to help celebrate National Chicken Month👇
