creamy garlic chicken,broccoli and potatos
Due to some upheaving in my life the last two days I havent had much time to cook. I decided this morning since i had to be up at 5 to throw something into the crockpot so we werent having take out for dinner. I had some chicken defrosted so thats where I started, threw in a few things and this is what we ended up with. I hadnt guaged the time well since I was expecting this to be dinner. Instead it was done early and the house smelled so incredibly tantalizing that my family decided they would have dinner for lunch lol. They devoured the entire crockpot of food and 10 of the brownies (for lack of a better word) that i had just finished frosting. Now everyone is laying around the house like stuffed pigs while i play on JAP. This was really easy and honestly so savory and delicious. Everyone loved it and let me know that they will be expecting it again soon : )
