Slow Cooker Chicken Alfredo Stew

I found this recipe at Betty Crocker and was pleasantly surprised with the results. This recipe is quick and easy; just throw the ingredients in the crock pot and smell it cooking all day. Serve this stew with rolls on a chilly day and savor the flavor!

Slow Cooker Chicken Alfredo Stew:

1 jar (16 oz) Alfredo pasta sauce
3/4 cups water
1/2 tsp. dried basil leaves
1/2 tsp. salt
4 cups refrigerated cooked diced potatoes with onions (from 20 oz bag).*
1 1/4 lb. skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch wide strips
1 bag (1 lb.) frozen mixed vegetables

1. In small bowl, mix pasta sauce, water, basil and salt
2. Spray 3-4 quart crock pot with cooking spray. In crock pot, layer half each of the pottaoes, chicken strips, frozen vegetables and pasta sauce. Repeat layers ending with pasta sauce.
3. Cover; cook on Low heat for 6-8 hours.

There, that's it! Easy as pie...or stew.
*This can easily be substituted by cutting up potatoes into cubes and adding a bit of chopped onion.
