Do you like chicken? I hope so, because we sure do.

In fact, or when I actually think about it, chicken is our main meat most days of the week.
Which brings me to my next question. Do you love stuffing (or ‘dressing’ if you’re feelin fancy)?
We definitely love that.
Ok, so here goes, last question. Are you looking for an easy crockpot or slow cooker dinner?
Was your answer to all three of those questions a resounding yes? Then this Crockpot Chicken & Stuffing recipe is absolutely perfect for you and your family.
This one only requires four ingredients. FOUR!
It’s super simple to throw together, so there’s no need to feel overwhelmed or under the gun about getting a hot, healthy meal on the table, even on your busiest of days.
Pair it with some steamed veggies, or a salad, and you’re in business.
I know, I know. I usually enjoy making these types of things from scratch or at least froof-ing the box version.
And while this isn’t straight from a box, and even though there’s plenty of room for it, there’s minimal froof-age. Is that even a word? I’m not sure, but I know what it means and I’m going with it.
Some days I just need some help with that quick and easy option, and for those days I count on a great crockpot recipe like this one.
With one kid down for the count for day, two with a headache and fever, and one recovering from the terrifying, traumatizing event of losing his first tooth, dinner need to be simple.
So simple, it could be called a no brainer. Something I didn’t have to think about, or really do anything with at all, not even mindlessly watching it on the stove occasionally stirring in my sleep-deprived Mom-bie mode.
Needless to say, I’ve already got this cooking in the crockpot.
This is a perfect meal for everyone to enjoy on a rainy Winter day, and it’s also perfect for scratching my poultry and stuffing itch when I’m at the awkward halfway mark between last Thanksgiving and next Thanksgiving.
Bonus points, because it’s a breeze to quickly get going- leaving me more time to get done what I really want to be doing today. Taking care of the sons.
I’ll take my serving with a side of sick boy snuggles, please!

My Mom makes this all the time. It is the most requested dish she makes and has to bring to any potluck or meal with relatives. It’s delicious.
I love how easy it is, especially given how tasty the finished product is. I hadn’t thought about potlucks. Thanks, this is perfect for them!
Hi Meaghan, just like the last comment…we make something similar, but I’ve never thought of making it in a slow cooker, what a brilliant idea you have here. Pinned (I’ve pinned a few of your ideas lately…good stuff)!
Aww, thanks Jeanne! Some nights, if it weren’t for the crockpot/slow cooker, there wouldn’t be dinner. And then, around these parts, there’d be all out mutiny and one crazy Capt. Mama on the good ship 4 Sons.
Oh this looks absolutely delicious! If only I wasn’t on a diet at the moment, absolutely love stuffing! Sim @ simslife.co.uk
I think the setting should be “high” not “low” for 4 hours. I cooked mine on “high” and it came out perfect after about 3.5 hours.
Making this tomorrow! Did you use the small (10.5 oz. can of cream of chicken soup? Thanks! And can’t wait to try it!
Yes, the small can! Hope you love it as much as our family does 🙂
Could you use boneless skinless thighs in this recipe?
Absolutely! My guys just don’t like dark meat. Would be much juicier and more tender when done with thighs!
Would you be able too use your own stuffing mix that’s not cooked instead of boxed stuffing?
You should be able to!
