INGREDIENTS FOR CROCKPOT CHICKEN AND GRAVY

- 4 large chicken breasts, cut in half horizontally for easier cooking (about 1 lb)
- 1 10.75-oz can of cream of chicken soup

SUBSTITUTIONS AND ADDITIONS
CHICKEN GRAVY MIX: You can use 2 tablespoons of powdered chicken and gravy mix in place of the 2 envelopes of chicken gravy mix.
BOUILLON: If you prefer, you can just smash up 2 chicken bouillon cubes, in a Ziploc bag, with the back of a spoon, and use this in place of the Better than Bouillon Chicken Flavor.
POTATOES OR RICE: I recommend serving your chicken and gravy over homemade mashed potatoes. It makes for a hearty and comforting meal. Serving it over a bed of white or brown rice is also a great option.
