Three Ingredient Chicken Broccoli Alfredo Crock Pot Recipe

 Slow Cooker Chicken Broccoli Alfredo | TheFrugalGirls.com
Ingredients
  • 4 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts, fresh or thawed (I used 8 chicken tenders)
  • 1½ jars Classico Creamy Alfredo Sauce (15 oz. jars) (I used just 1 jar)
  • 10 oz. Frozen Broccoli Florets (I used fresh broccoli)
Instructions
  1. Place chicken in Crock Pot, and Cook on HIGH for 2.5 hours or LOW for 5 hours
  2. After 2.5 hours on HIGH or 5 hours on LOW, drain juices from Crock Pot.
  3. Evenly spread Alfredo Sauce over chicken, then top with Broccoli Florets.
  4. Cook on HIGH for 1 more hour {covered}, or until done.
  5. Optional: Serve with a side of Pasta. ENJOY!

From whence it came: I found this yummy and healthy recipe on Pinterest. TheFrugalGirls.com were nice enough to post it on Pinterest and I'm so glad they did!

Why it's blogable: The Spy is doing a low carb diet this week, and the reason is hilarious! He has a checkup with the doctor on Friday and he's trying to get some weight off super fast so he doesn't look like a slacker. Kind of like cramming for a test!  So I went on Pinterest looking for recipes that would fit my healthier eating plan and also his low carb cram diet. This one worked for both of us. I didn't make a side of pasta, instead I made a green salad and sugar free jello. And both of us agreed that this recipe is a winner!  I'll be making it again and again!

Cooks tips: Like I said above, I used chicken tenders and fresh broccoli.  I placed the chicken tenders in the crockpot, sprinkled them with salt, pepper and garlic powder then cooked them on high for about 2 hours. I drained all of the liquid, placed the broccoli in the pot and poured one bottle of sauce over everything. Then I cooked it on high again for about 45 minutes.  It was perfect!

Hope you enjoy stirring it up!
