Three Easy Slow Cooker Chicken Recipes

As warm weather approaches, I am eagerly anticipating time outside working in the yard and garden, playing with the kids and cooking meals on the grill. Not all meals have to be grilled during the warm months however. Just like any other time of the year, we're busy people who do not have time to wait for food to cook. So, just like any other time of the year, I use my slow cooker to make dinner-time easier.

My youngest son has lately acquired a picky attitude regarding food, and chicken has become a food of choice. With that in mind, I've found some chicken recipes that pass both of our requirements: easy to prep, simple and few ingredients and cooked in a crock pot. There you go, perfect for busy folks who aren't in the least bit interested in messing around in a kitchen for very long.
