Crockpot Chicken & Squash

Made a variation of this recipe for dinner tonight!  It was delicious!  Just thought I'd share. :) 


Squash & Chicken

What You Need:
4 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
2 carrots, peeled and chopped
2 parsnips, peeled and chopped
1 acorn squash, peeled and chopped
1 (14.5 oz) can chicken broth
1/2 tsp. garlic salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/4 C honey
How to Make It:
Place the carrot and parsnips in the bottom of the crock pot.
Add the garlic salt being sure to cover all the vegetables.
Place the chicken pieces on top.
Add the broth.
Lay the squash on top of the chicken.
Sprinkle in the pepper and nutmeg.
Pour the honey over the top being sure to cover completely.
Cover and cook on low 8 hours.

*I didn't have parsnips lying around, so I used idaho potatoes.  I substituted butternut squash for the acorn squash and I added a little cinnamon along with the nutmeg on top of the squash.   I probably will omit the potatoes next time and serve it with wild rice.
