Slow Cooker Chicken Stroganoff

So this was one of those dinners I never even planned. I actually had something else in mind that I had been looking forward to making for a couple weeks. But then I used the chicken from that for something else. So I went and bought some more chicken and then when I opened the bag of potatoes they were bad. So here I was with chicken, mushrooms, and zero potatoes for my originally planned meal. I didn't want to waste the mushrooms and so the first thing that came to mind was stroganoff!

I've made Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff plenty of times. But I've heard of people making it with chicken and I knew mushrooms go really well with chicken so I decided to give it a try. Well, everybody at my house ate a couple of helpings and it even made it's way into a lunchbox! A success in my books!

Sometimes the simplest meals can be the best. This one is pretty easy! Throw some chicken and mushrooms into a baggie with a little flour and some seasonings and shake it up. Add it to the crock with some chicken broth and let it go. At dinner time you can boil up some noodles and/or rice to go with it. While those are cooking you can add some cream cheese and sour cream to the crock and let it all melt/combine.

The way may family gobbled this up made me think I don't serve these traditional comfort food meals often enough. What are your go to comfort food meals? Does your family have anything they request over and over?

I mean creamy yummy flavorful chicken served over noodles? What more can you ask for?!
