Scale

1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts

3 cups fresh or frozen broccoli florets

2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

4 oz cream cheese

1 cup chicken broth

1 tsp minced garlic

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Season chicken with salt and pepper, then place in crockpot.

4. Cover and cook on low for 4–5 hours.
