Tonight's Slow Cooker Chicken

This recipe is simple, but it's delicious. With grad school, a one-year-old, a husband who's working hard because of a new promotion, my freelancing, and our company, my time's pretty limited these days. Our Crock-Pot has become one of my best friends! This recipe isn't the healthiest. One day I'm going to learn to make more soups from scratch, but it's not too bad.

Dice up two large chicken breasts and toss them in the slow cooker with a tablespoon each of oregano, basil, and garlic. Then add in a can of cream of celery (or any variety) soup and a can of cream of chicken soup. Cook on low for about five hours. Make sure the chicken is done and enjoy.

The three of us eat from this recipe twice, but then the little guy doesn't eat a whole lot. We have it over rice with broccoli. We've also had the liquid as a soup with bread, which is very tasty as well.

Plus, it's cheap. We buy a bag of frozen, skinless chicken breasts. It's $7 for a bag of 6 breasts. With all of the ingredients combined, this dish costs about $4.75.
