My brother and sister-in-law are expecting their first baby anytime now and I wanted to give them a few frozen slow cooker meals to help them out. They are also doing a full kitchen renovation at the same time so slow cooker meals are going to be perfect for them. This was a hit when I made it for my friend Ashley when she had her baby last summer. The only change I made to my first Slow Cooker Mustard Maple Chicken recipe was I added thyme. You can also add rosemary if you have that instead. I think those flavors would go great with this dish. This is the first recipe of a total of 4 freezer slow cooker meals that I made, enjoy!
Note: I halved the portions and placed 2 chicken breasts in a 1 quart freezer bag.
