This recipe was chosen by my husband.  He remembers eating Chicken Ala King back in his Army days while he was in the training field.  They would give him this tasty dish in his MRE’s (Meals Ready to Eat) and he says it was the best one out there.  It was so much better than the other MRE’s, that he would trade anything he had to get more Chicken Ala King.  Of course, he still doused it with Tabasco sauce, so it couldn’t have been THAT great!  🙂  When I asked him if this crockpot meal was as good as he remembered, he said that it was WAY BETTER.  Oh good!   Score another point for mom.  Oh wait…..I guess he picked this recipe out….dad gets the point after all!

Regardless of who gets the “point”, it’s nice to find an extra easy recipe that the family likes.  This one is one of those that you don’t have to cook quite as long.  In fact, today, I totally forgot to get anything into the slow cooker and quickly found my simplest recipe that I had on hand.  This one only has to cook on high for about 3 total hours.  What a relief that was for me today, since I didn’t actually get it started until 4:00 p.m.  Yeah, we didn’t eat until after 7:00, but hey, at last we ate at home, right?

This recipe is one of those chicken recipes that calls for cream of chicken soup.  It seems that lots of slow cooker recipes use this very hand canned soup, but I’ve found several of my readers who are resistant to using it.  I don’t blame them.  Especially since it’s getting harder for me to eat these days.  My pregnant self is getting extra sensitive to the taste.  My kids on the other hand, love it!  🙂  But….if you happen to be trying to steer clear of this soup, be sure to check out this cream soup alternative, that you could use to make a better, homemade version.

  • Amorette DavisUser of the Free Freezer to Slow Cooker One Week Menu

    Thank you so much! As a special needs mommy these recipes have helped us so much.   I often am very busy with being a nurse for our child that I don't have time for making sure we get meals.  This allows me to do all my prep on the weekends, while my husband is home to help, and to cook during the week.  So grateful!

  • Linda SearsOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Menus

    Sarah’s Freezer to Slow Cooker ebooks have been a fantastic addition to my meal plans.  They make meal planning easy and my family happy. I love the way each recipe is laid out, with a shopping list and ingredient prep list, along with cooking instructions. Sarah’s done all the hard work for me!  The recipes have used have all been delicious and easily adaptable to my family’s taste and the number of people I’m serving.

  • FranOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Ebooks
     I purchased all of your freezer to slow cooker ebooks a month or so ago and I'm in love with this way of cooking.  I now have taken all 10 weeks of recipes and written them of my menu planner and then I repeated the 10 weeks and will continue to do so throughout the year.  My family of 5 adults and 1 child enjoy the meals that you have planned and I have cooked and I'm excited that the next time when that meal comes due up in the rotation I won't have to purchase anything but just pull it from the freezer.  Thank you so much

    This makes my life so much easier. I'm a busy work at home/stay at home mom, wife, business woman and I feel like dinner is always the thing I just never get time to do. We have done like 15 of the crockpot recipes from Sarah and they are all very yummy. They get a thumbs up from my husband and kids every time. And there is always enough for my husband to take the left overs at least 2x per recipe. I have a family of 5, 2 adults, 21, 13, 16. So it makes plenty. Thank you Sarah.

    I am a 59-year-old wife and mother of two grown children.  I love your idea of fixing a lot of meals ahead of time and then pulling one out, put it in the crockpot, and you have dinner when you get home.  I hate feeling rushed when I cook so Monday - Friday I use those crockpot meals and make enough that we have lunch the next day.  I take Sunday afternoon, fix up what I need for the week (I don't have a lot of freezer space so I do a week's worth at a time) and I'm done with it!  Saturdays I like to try new recipes from some of my cookbooks which I am finding I can freeze as well!  So you have shown me a whole new way to organize my time and still put a healthy meal on the table.  Thanks so much and I look forward to future blogs.
