This slow cooker mushroom chicken is so simple to make and so tasty too! And with a few smart choices, it is a low-spoon recipe too!
Of course, the slow cooker is my favorite small appliance to use, and recipes like this are the result. If I could recommend one small appliance for those who are single, a slow cooker would be at the top of my list! There are so many meals that you can make that require very little prep, but still allow you to create foods that are so much better for your body and health than restaurant and convenience foods.
I enjoy it on those days when I don’t have a lot of time to put together a meal but still want a home-cooked meal.
This is truly one of the fastest prep, throw and go recipes that I make. It makes prep a breeze and makes for an easy dinner! This meal can be made gluten or grain-free…depending on the soup you use. If the cream of mushroom soup is gluten or grain-free, then your meal will be too!
Often, I will use homemade cream of mushroom soup for this recipe, but occasionally I enjoy this organic soup, which is grain-free! You can use the soup that works best for you!
To make the meal complete, cook up some brown rice or heat up a pack of pre-cooked rice. If you are eating grain-free, try cauliflower rice or zucchini noodles. And steam some veggies too to boost the nutrient levels of your meal.
This meal is for two people, but it’s perfect to make if you are okay with eating leftovers because it gives you two different meals! If you want to make more extras to freeze for future meals, then double this recipe!
