Your New Favorite Crockpot Comfort Meal

My Crockpot Chicken and Stuffing has become a lifesaver on busy days. After years of testing I've found the perfect balance of tender chicken layered with savory stuffing and green beans all wrapped in a creamy sauce. Just pop everything in your crockpot cook on high for 4 hours or low for 6 to 7 hours and dinner is done. I love giving the stuffing a gentle stir now and then to make sure it cooks evenly. Sometimes I toss in sausage onions celery or dried cranberries when I want to switch things up. A side of whipped potatoes makes this meal absolutely perfect.
