Equipment

Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 8 ounces each)
1 sweet onion, chunked
2 cups chopped carrots
1/2 cabbage, chopped
1 yellow squash, chunked
1 zucchini, chunked
2 packets dry Italian dressing seasoning
2 tablespoons olive oil
Minced garlic, to taste
1 spaghetti squash, cut in half with pulp and seeds removed

Instructions

Ideal slow cooker size: 6-Quart or larger.
Place chicken in slow cooker. Sprinkle it with one of the packages of dry Italian dressing seasoning.
Add the chopped onion, carrots, cabbage, yellow squash and zucchini. Add minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and drizzle with olive oil.
Stir to coat the vegetables with the oil and seasonings.
Snuggle the spaghetti squash, cut-side down, into the mixture.
Cover and cook on LOW for 4 to 6 hours, or until the chicken is done and vegetables are tender.
Carefully remove the hot spaghetti squash. You should be able to shred chicken in the slow cooker and mix it in with the vegetables.
Using a fork, scrape the spaghetti squash creating spaghetti-like noodles and stir back into chicken and vegetable mixture.
Taste and add salt and pepper and any other seasoning to taste.
