Chef Meg's Slow Cooker Provencal Chicken with beans (AKA's edits)
This is Chef Meg's recipe, with a few changes. Also, I wanted to see the nutrition info for 7 servings, Chef Meg's was calculated for 6.
I would like to spice it up or etc next time. Stay tuned for a revision. I served mine with hot sauce over brown rice the first time.
I used a 3.5qt slow cooker. Chef Meg used less chicken. I had 2lbs (32oz.) on hand v.s. 24 oz.
