Crockpot Chicken and Carb. This week has been a little chaotic. I am trying a new routine trying by entertain my kids while doing my mommy duties. Now, there are no school and no activities, it has been a lot tougher to get things done. This is where my crockpot becomes very handy. The one I have has a timer to set the amount of time needs to cook the dish. Once cooked the crockpot will switch the setting to warm. It is quite easy to use and fantastic for Moms who wants to provide a nutritious meal for the family.

Crockpot Dish
There are many benefits of using a crockpot. The slow cooker or crockpot cook dishes at a low temperature. Therefore, the protein will remain tender and delicious. And, the crockpot gives the meat a huge amount of flavors by slow cooking the meat. Chicken, pork or beef will be flavorful and juicy. Nothing like coming home and being welcomed by the aroma of the dinner ready in the crockpot. Also, nothing like the delicious smell of dinner throughout the house.
