    I make a super simple crack chicken tater tot casserole in the crockpot.
    1 lb of diced chicken breast
    1 bag of frozen tater tots
    1 cup of bacon crumbles
    1 cup milk
    1 pkg of ranch seasoning
    Put half a bag of tater tots in bottom of crockpot. Top with 1/3 cup cheese and bacon. Place chicken on next layer salt and pepper to taste. Top with 1/3 cup of cheese and bacon. Top with the remaining tater tots and the rest of the cheese and bacon. Mix milk and ranch seasoning together and pour over everything. High for 3-4 hrs or low 6-8 hrs.

    This all looks amazing but I just got out of the hospital for a week with newly diagnosed heart failure… lost 20 lbs of fluid in that week!! Now I am on a low sodium diet … and there is sodium in everything! Especially prepackaged foods… so I will need to adjust this using fresh food and some of them I can do no more… like the sausage… I’ll sure miss that! So far I am doing ok but it makes meal planning so much more important… 😢
    That Tuscan Chicken one will be easy to work around!! Making that one!!

      @SouthernFrugalMomma  ปีที่แล้ว +1

    As I’m watching your video, I’m getting a small shopping list together of the few ingredients that I don’t have in the house, and then I will now be making these for myself, I recently was gifted, a personal crockpot, so I can make these for myself by just seeing the recipes a little bit, they look absolutely delicious and the look on your families face as they eat them is just priceless and you know it’s good, faces don’t lie and your kids are so full of expression, even your husband, thank you for your great videos, they really do help a lot when it comes to finding out something, my kids will eat and also budgeting so that I’m not wasting money on shopping

I did 2 big chicken breasts 1 packet ranch 1 packet Au jus 1/2 stick of butter and 5 Pepperoncini from the jar with a little of the juice from the jar. Let me tell u sooooo good!! Going forward I’m going to add a cup of chicken broth with it so to stretch some more of that amazing gravy

    This gave me inspiration for tonight's dinner. I didn't do it in the crockpot but I did it on the stovetop. I did the first one with potatoes and sausage. I used real potatoes and chicken jalapeno sausage. Well, I loved the potatoes but the sausage was a bit too spicey for me. I was thinking ham pieces might be good in it too.
