A blog of simple, easy, money, time saving and also healthy Crock-Pot recipes. A lot of these recipes are soup recipes or recipes that include soup in the ingredients. Some are sauces or one-pot meals. I worked in a Crock-Pot Factory, in Hannibal, Mo., when we first got married, on November 30, 1974. The people I worked with gave us a Crock-Pot for a wedding gift. I started using one way back then and still use one. So I've been using a Crock-Pot for over 39 years now.

Chicken Breasts
There are several good ideas of dishes to make using Chicken Breasts. You can cook a batch over the weekend and have them ready for the week. You can freeze them or cut them into cubes and freeze them. That way you will have them ready for Salads or other dishes during the week. If you freeze them just saute them a little Olive Oil and they are delicious, healthy and ready to eat. We love diced Chicken in our Salads. Sometimes we make a Salad meal using diced Chicken. Here is the way to prepare them.
4-6 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts; seasoned on both sides.
Seasoned Salt Substitute to taste.
Pepper to taste.
Garlic Powder to taste.
Onion Powder to taste.
1 Can Low Fat and Sodium Chicken Broth.
