When it comes to cooking, I love quick and easy! Over the summer, my oldest son decided he wanted to cook three meals a week--gourmet meals with Mom's help. We're talking labor intensive with lots of time in the kitchen! The results were wonderful, but crock pot cooking is more my thing. Here's something that sounds really delicious from BettyCrocker.com. Enjoy!
Creamy Tomato Slow Cooker Chicken
4
boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1 1/4 lb)
2 cloves
garlic, finely chopped
1
teaspoon dried basil leaves
½
teaspoon dried oregano leaves
¼
teaspoon pepper
1 jar (15
oz) Alfredo sauce
1 can
(14.5 oz) Muir Glen™ organic fire roasted petite diced tomatoes,
drained
1 can (8
oz) Muir Glen™ organic tomato sauce
1 box (12
oz) uncooked pasta (such as penne or mostaccioli)
2
tablespoons cornstarch
2
tablespoons water
½ cup
shredded Italian cheese blend (2 oz), if desired
Spray 3-
to 4-quart slow cooker with cooking spray. Arrange chicken in bottom
of slow cooker. Top with garlic, basil, oregano and pepper. In
separate bowl, stir together Alfredo sauce, tomatoes and tomato
sauce until well combined. Pour mixture over chicken.Cover;
cook on Low heat setting 5 to 6 hours.
Ten to 15
minutes before serving time, cook pasta as directed on package. In
small bowl, stir together cornstarch and water; stir into mixture in
slow cooker. Increase heat setting to High; cook uncovered 5 to 10
minutes longer.
Do you prefer quick and easy, or do you like preparing gourmet meals?
