Crock Pot In a Hurry Chicken Curry

Here's another recipe from my personal collection. This could probably be prepared ahead of time and frozen, then just dumped in the crock pot. It doesn't look for appealing, but it was pretty tasty.


16 oz bag frozen mixed veggies
4-6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 can cream of potato soup
2 tbsp curry powder


Place veggies in crock pot.  Place chicken on top.


 In a bowl mix soup and curry powder. Pour in crock pot. Cover and cook on low 6-7 hours.
