"I kinda just fudged this one together one night by combining a few recipes that I had made before. My fiance loved it but I thought it might be lacking on salt or that little extra something (but my taste buds have been odd since I quit smoking so it might be perfectly okay). Any suggestions would be great. This can be cooked on High in the crock pot, but I would suggest doing it on Low so it gives the flavors time to cook into the chicken!"

Serves:: 4

ingredients

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
garlic powder, to taste
season salt, to taste
1 green pepper, cut into strips
1 red pepper, cut into strips
1 yellow pepper, cut into strips
1 (1 1/4 ounce) envelope dry onion soup mix
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can 98% fat-free condensed mushroom soup
¹⁄₄ cup light ranch salad dressing
1 -2 cup diet cola
2 tablespoons flour
¹⁄₄ cup water
3 cups whole grain rice

directions

Place chicken in slow cooker. Sprinkle with garlic powder and season salt, to taste.
Cut tops off of peppers and scoop out insides. Discard. Cut peppers into lengthwise. Put in crock pot on top of chicken.
Mix the rest of the ingredients in a separate bowl; pour over chicken and peppers.
Cover and cook on low for 6 hours or high 3 hours.
Mix flour and water in a small bowl. Turn crock pot to High and add flour mixture. Cover and cook for another half hour. This will help the "gravy" thicken up.
While "gravy" is cooking, prepare rice according to package directions (I use Success Boil in the Bag and it comes out perfect every time).
Serve chicken, peppers and gravy over rice.

The most defining trait in my life is that I am a mother to two wonderful boys (Tyler, 20 and Zayden, 9). I live in the little college town of Selinsgrove, Pennsylvania. It is the most wonderful place to live as it's nestled in the Appalachian Mountains and along the beautiful Susquehanna River. Seeing that we live in Central Pennsylvania, our family is also a bunch of HARDCORE Penn State Nittany Lion fans! We are...PENN STATE! I was lucky enough to be given tickets to see Joe Paterno win his 400th game as the head coach of the football team. I cried like I did when my children were born. The other love of my life is cooking. I didn't really start trying to cook until I was 20, but believe me I have made up for lost time! I absolutely adore baking and I do it whenever I can. I love making Christmas cookies and I have begun hosting our extended families at our home for Thanksgiving and Easter dinners. So far so good. I love food.com because it allows me to expand my culinary skills and my recipe box with ideas from other people like me. There is something for everyone and I have been a loyal member since 2005. I hope you enjoy my recipes and if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
