What's for Dinner Tonight?



Serves 6

1 ½ pounds chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
6 ounce bag baby spinach
½ cup diced roasted red peppers
6 whole wheat buns

Toss the chicken with Hearty Spaghetti Blend, Garlic Galore, and Grapeseed Oil in a slow cooker. Cook on high 2-3 hours or until chicken is cooked through and tender. Transfer chicken to a bowl or other working surface. Once cool enough to handle, shred the chicken. Add the spinach, roasted red pepper, and chicken to the slow cooker with remaining liquid. Toss to combine. Cover and continue cooking, stirring often, until spinach is wilted. Season with salt and pepper if desired.  Serve on buns with shredded cheese if desired.
