Lemon Chicken Pasta

INGREDIENTS:

1 can cream of chicken soup

1/2 cup water

1/8 cup lemon juice

1 tsp. spicy mustard

1 tsp. garlic powder

4 carrots, thickly sliced

2 chicken breasts

Whole wheat pasta

Capers for garnish

Serves 4

DIRECTIONS:

Combine everything except for the pasta and capers in crock pot.  Cook on high for 8 hours if chicken is frozen. Cook on low for 4-6 hours if chicken is thawed.  Shred cooked chicken in crock put while your pasta is cooking. Pour drained pasta directly into crock pot and mix.

One hearty and healthy dinner.

TIP: Properly garnishing your crock pot dinners can make a big difference.  Serve your pasta with capers for a savory touch.
