With two jobs and a blog to maintain (oh and a social life, gym schedule, etc), I tend to run out of time for basic things – like cooking. And showering. And wearing makeup. Oops.
That’s why I love this Crockpot Zucchini Chicken Parmesan recipe so much. I literally just threw all these ingredients in my slow cooker and let it do the cooking for me.
Sometimes I like to imagine that a tiny hot guy wearing nothing but an apron lives in my crockpot. And he’s cooking over a stove, and then POOF – the meal is cooked to perfection and ready for consumption. No? …. just me?
This slow cooker chicken parmesan is packed with veggies and protein for a filling dinner. It’s even great as leftovers for lunch.
Top it with some cheese at the end for an extra special treat! You can serve over pasta or quinoa, but I just ate this plain and was totally satisfied. Yay for protein!
