How to Make Creamed Spinach Chicken in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
One thing I love about this Crock Pot Creamed Spinach Chicken recipe is that you get a serving of veggies without even really realizing it. The spinach and chicken are combined with the delicious creamy sauce so well that you are getting a little bit of everything in each bite.
Now, my kiddos are kids and weren’t so sure about eating something with chopped spinach in it. However, after they took the first bite, they were sold! As a picky eater myself, I can relate to being hesitant when trying something new. This one has my picky eater stamp of approval. It is so yummy!
