SLOW COOKER CHICKEN BREASTS WITH GRAVY

My family and I have a weak spot for comfort foods. Most recipes for comfort food require time that I do not have. This is where the chicken with gravy saves the day. It takes only minutes in the morning to put together and then my mind is not stuck all day thinking about dinner ideas. That is beautiful!

I usually make rice or egg noodles to serve with the chicken. Both are delicious options, but my family insists that mashed potatoes are the absolute best. If I have time (usually only on weekends), I make the mashed potatoes! With the gravy, they elevate the dish to a new level of comfort food!

When I was growing up, my Mom made a dish very similar to this one and she always served it over egg noodles. That was my favorite back then and I admit that I still prefer it today. It will not take long to determine which is the favorite – they will let you know! This dish is a winner, and you will be thrilled with how effortless it is to make!
