Using your slow cooker, or crock pot is just the most efficient way to feed your family! It is something you can do while you are away and dinner is just waiting. It's so nice to come home to a wonderful smelling home and dinner ready to eat!


2 cups baby carrots
1 lb. quartered red potatoes
1 sm chopped onion
1 clove garlic pressed
2 lbs chicken (i use skinless boneless frozen breasts)
1/2 c. chicken broth
2 T cornstarch
1/2 t thyme
salt & pepper
1 - 10 oz. pkg. frozen peas, thawed
1/2 cup heavy cream

Put veggies in crockpot, lay chicken over veggies.
mix broth, cornstarch, thyme, salt & pepper and pour over.
cook on low for 8 hours or high 5-6 hours.
remove veggies and chicken
pour in cream and peas to heat through
pour over chicken & veggies
