Slow Cooker Chicken Breast with Figs and Squash - Brien Shamp’s Coaching, Nutrition & Fitness

Slow Cooker Chicken Breast with Figs and Squash

A slow cooker is a wonderful tool to prepare meals of protein and vegetables with very little labor. Most slow cooker recipes simply require that you chop and gather all of the ingredients into the slow cooker in the morning, and then the food cooks all day while you are away. The chicken and squash in this recipe turn out deliciously moist and flavorful.
