Well, summer is here – the time of year when sports, activities, and just enjoying the weather fills all of our free time. I’ve been hunting down some slow-cooker recipes that are a little more summery and hope to share them with you for those nights when one person has softball, another has soccer, and oh yeah, there is that baby that needs to eat too! If you have any to share please send them to [email protected] so I can check it out!
Ingredients:
• 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless, chicken breast
• 1 yellow bell pepper

• 1 (14.5 oz ) can diced tomatoes with basil and oregano or any style of canned tomatoes
• 1 dash salt
• 1 dash black pepper
• 2 tsp dried basil
• 1 tsp dried thyme
Directions:
Dice red and yellow peppers
Place all ingredients into a slow cooker, stir and cover with lid; cook on low heat for 7 hours. If you are running late, the mixture will hold for 8 hours, so don’t rush
This makes 6 one-cup servings.

LOVE this site….can’t wait to try these recipes. Love the fact the nutritional information is listed and WW points plus.
Thanks!!!
I made this for my family and would like to propose some changes. Firstly, leave out the beans. We felt they were dry and didn’t add any flavor. Secondly, toss in some garlic powder or minced garlic to taste. Finally, just before serving turn off the crock pot and put about 1 cup of low fat or fat free mozzarella cheese on top and cover until melted. I served this with baby reds which was great.
This looks delicious!! I am SO going to make this. Thank you for sharing!!
Great! Let me know what you think, I love feedback
