Slow Cooker Cheesy Chicken and Broccoli

I found this recipe somewhere on the internet a couple of years ago. I can't remember where so I can't give them credit. It is so simple but so good.


*2 cans of Broccoli Cheese soup
*1 soup can of milk
* 1 lb of chicken breasts- I usually use 3. If they are large, you could get away with only using 2.
* Broccoli florets- the original recipe called for a bag of frozen broccoli but I never buy that. I usually have fresh broccoli on hand, so I just cup up how much I want to use. I probably use around 2 cups.

What I do is put the chicken in the bottom of the slow cooker. I put the broccoli on top of the chicken. I then mix the soup and milk and pour over top. How long you cook it depends on if the chicken breasts were frozen or thawed. Also on how fast your slow cooker cooks. Mine runs hot and cooks things fairly fast. I let it cook for probably 4 hours. I usually start it on high for an hour or two then turn it down to low for a couple of hours. When the chicken is cooked, you can either take it out and cube it or I just put a fork in the bowl and stir it around and it shreds the chicken and mixes everything together. When you are ready to eat- serve it over rice or any kind of grain or noodle you want. I usually serve it over white rice because that is what my family likes.
