Clean Eating Slowcooker Italian Chicken

With having swimming lessons each evening, I have brought out my slow cooker for easy meals that are ready to eat.  Monday night we had a clean eating slow cooker italian chicken dish.  Though my husband and I both loved it, my daughter didn't like it so much.  She is a very picky eater and finding things that fit her tastes and that are healthy, is very difficult.  I will NOT give up.  This is a battle I will win!

My goal lately is to find quick and easy meals that are healthy as well as family friendly - no matter what.

I paired this dish with some brown rice and quinoa pasta (gluten free) and a side of veggies.

However, if you are interested in trying this dish - here is the recipe (Thanks to newleafwellness.biz): Up side - it's a freezer meal!

Crockpot Italian Chicken

Yields: One bag of Italian chicken with six servings (I doubled this recipe and made two bags.)

INGREDIENTS
1 small onion, diced
28oz can diced tomatoes
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts

MATERIALS • 1 gallon-sized plastic freezer bag PREP 1. Label your freezer bag. 2. To your freezer bag, add all ingredients. Add chicken to the freezer bag last so it’s the first ingredient poured into your crockpot. 3. Remove as much air from the freezer bag as possible, seal, and lay flat in your freezer.

COOK 1. The night before cooking, move frozen bag to your refrigerator to thaw. 2. The morning of cooking, pour contents of freezer bag into your crockpot. 3. Cook on “low” setting for 4-6 hours, or until chicken is cooked through.
