I made this for Sunday dinner and both my husband and I loved it! And I finally have a recipe that utilizes the celery salt I have had for awhile now!
This recipe is awesome!

Hint to ‘Joshalynn’ in reference to the prep time- I don’t worry about peeling the potatoes- just scrub them really well and leave the skins on & then chop. First, most of the nutrients are in the skins anyway, so why waste the best part? Secondly, the skins are so thin, why bother? Thirdly, I have a back problem so the less time I have to stand and prep, the better and just cleaning & cutting the potatoes without peeling them saves lots of time. Another time saver is using the baby carrots (I used about 1/2 of a 1lb bag) instead of peeling and chopping 2 medium carrots. I think the baby carrots taste better anyway and then you have some left over for snacking too! :-)

It’s just a regular size can…15 oz. However, if you like more tomatoes, feel free to use the larger can.

What size can of stewed tomatoes??

I was a bit apprehensive about this stew at first since it called for a wide variety of spices and ingredients that I have never put together before. But it turned out great!! Amazing!! Not only did my family rant and rave about how good this meal is and how they want it on a regular basis, but my daughter and husband were bragging about it to their friends, and when my husband took the leftovers to work, his coworkers were very jealous of the fabulous aroma it created in the breakroom. Only thing downside is that the prep time was more like an hour for me…but then again I am not that fast with a vegetable peeler. LOL

Not at all, Joshalynn!

Would it mess it up if i added a can of corn?

Just throw it in raw or frozen, Jennifer. That’s what makes crockin’ so easy, peasy!

do I need to cook the chicken first for this recipe or just throw the chopped chicken pieces in raw? Just curious
