Crockpot Island Chicken
The newest Hallmark Channel series, “The Motherhood” is all about community, and helping out single mothers who need a little help getting on their feet. I love the “neighbor ladies”, whom individually, have something special to offer to this group of moms. As a parent, one of the things I struggle most with is having time to make a full, healthy, delicious meal. I would imagine this is just as much a struggle, if not more-so for single parents. This is where crockpot meals come in! I created a very simple and delicious recipe that will not only please the whole family, but also make you feel like you just landed on a tropical island!
Ingredients:
-4 skinless chicken breasts
-Salt and Pepper
-1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk

Chop up scallions and add those in. Stir everything together.
