Pesto Ranch Crock Pot Chicken

The original recipe can be found at this website: http://picky-palate.com/2012/09/20/pesto-ranch-crock-pot-chicken-thighs/

The only modification I made was using chicken breasts instead of thighs. This chicken dish had an amazing amount of flavor! Was delicious! 4 stars!

6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
6 ounce jar of pesto
1 package Ranch Dressing Seasoning Mix
1/2 cup chicken broth

Directions: Turn crock pot to high setting. Place chicken thighs, pesto, ranch dressing and chicken broth into crock pot. Stir gently to combine all seasonings. Close with lid and cook on high for 3-4 hours or on low for 6-8 hours.

Shortly after finding out I was pregnant. The craving for carbs was unbearable! After over a year of not eating sugar or white flour, I started again. Now, I regret it.
