Crockpot=Love

I love that I can throw everything in the crock pot in the morning, run errands and get a million things done, and wahla dinner is ready at 6! L-o-v-e it!

One of my new favorite crock pot meals in Chicken Pot Pie-ish. [I add the -ish because my husband says that it is NOT chicken pot pie, but more like chicken stew over biscuits. Whatev. Call it whatever you want! It is easy and yummy in my tummy.]

FYI: This is plenty for the two of us, with lots of leftovers for lunch.

2 c. diced red potatoes
1 1/2 C. baby carrots cut in half
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/4 tsp. garlic salt
black pepper to taste
1/2 tsp. Mrs. Dash
1/2 C minced onion or 1 TBS dry onion flakes
1 can of cream of chicken soup
3/4 C frozen peas

Shredded cheese, optional
