Our family loves crock pot roast. And I love meals that cook all day in the crock pot with little or no help from me!
This is a great variation from roast, although it uses mostly the same vegetables. It tastes almost like a good chicken soup, but is definitely heartier.
This dish needs to be put on after breakfast, or at least by lunch, to ensure that it’s nice and done by dinner time.
So yummy and warm, and just perfect for those cooler fall temperatures and busy sports nights, too.
Serve with your favorite bread or rolls,
Hope your family enjoys!

Could you do this with chicken LEGS???? I’m looking for a different way to use chicken legs, other than fried or baked.
Sure you could!!
Do you use boneless chicken breasts or bone-in?
Boneless..
thanks! just made your granola bars tonight and even my ultra picky eater loved them! thanks for the recipe! i love not giving my kids the processed stuff.
Hi there! Made this and my kids loved it! It was a bit “mushy”…maybe over-cooked it a bit? I was wondering if you strain it before you serve it, or serve it soupy style. It looks strained in the picture. Also I think i used too much broth…how big is the box you are referring to? Thanks so much for another great recipe!
The box has four cups of broth in it. No, I don’t strain it. You may need to adjust cooking times for your crockpot.
OK, that’s what my box of chicken broth has (4 cups). So I’m wondering why mine was all liquid and yours isn’t? Did your chicken soak up all of that broth? Mine was like soup. Thanks!
