Easy Crockpot Chicken
Wednesday nights are the worst right now. We have cheer practice from 6:30-8! And getting home at 8 is tough on the kiddos. So I make sure I always have a easy dinner ready and waiting for them to eat before we leave.
I had planned to try out a new recipe tonight, Chicken and Potatoes in the crock pot, but my new obsession with the series True Blood caused me to stay up way to late last night and I have been dragging all day! I couldn't even muster up enough energy to cut up the potatoes! And to top it off, I realized about 2pm today that there was no dinner in the crock pot and I needed something fast!
I remember that my awesome friend Lin(who is nicknamed Sparkle) @ That Lin Chick had told me about this super simple meal she makes her family on just such occasions.
This is her recipe. I posted my variations with * next to them.
Easy Crock pot Chicken
Chicken breasts (I used 4 tonight)
Cream of(enter the soup you like here). I used a broccoli cheese and a *cream of broccoli. Lin's recipe calls for 1 can, I used two to make more sauce
Veggies of your choice! (I used fresh broccoli and carrots)
* 1/4 cup of milk
*seasonings of pepper, garlic salt, and onion powder-to your taste
* 1/4 cup shredded sharp cheddar
Place chicken breast into crock pot. Top with soup. cook on low 6-8 hours or on high for 4 hours. About a hour before it is done add your veggies. Fresh veggies take a little bit longer than frozen. Serve over rice or noodles.
This is like a one pot wonder! Its got your protein, your veggies, your dairy....it has it all! it is so super tasty and simple!
And yes I'm still dieting, this is the only portion I will get! After this one I will snack on celery and cucumbers for the rest of the night, that's if I'm still hungry!

Need help counting calories?
I am in a contest with a group of Online friends to see who can lose the most weight by October 30th. We started last week. I did not do too bad, lost 2lbs, but it was a struggle for me. I love my carbs! I have zero motivation to sit and write down and count my calories or even try to figure out how much 17 pretzels have.
Luckily I came across this website that does it all for me!
SparkPeople is a website that not only tracks your calories for you, it can track your fitness, how much water you have drank and more! You fill out a fitness assessment and it calculates how many calories, carbs, fats, and proteins you should have each day.
Then when you have something to eat you just go log it into your nutrition area and it calculates the calories for you! No counting for yourself!
Not only do I love that it tracks everything for me, but I love how easy it is to use and that there is a community of other SparkPeople trying to lose weight too that I can turn to for motivation and help. I also love the recipe index with healthy recipes submitted by other SparkPeople! Tried and true recipes is my kinda thing!
So if you are trying to lose weight or just trying to eat healthy and want to see how you are doing, try out SparkPeople today!
