Join the discussionHi Katie, I love the idea of the peach sliders ( peaches are my fav), but my ? For you is….can I substitute chicken thighs for chicken breasts? I digest them better, since having a gastric bypass.
Absolutely! My husband prefers chicken breasts but I prefer thighs myself as well. 🙂 Enjoy!
Has anyone tried these as lettuce wraps instead of on buns? My husband is allergic to most grains.
Katrina – I think they would be delicious in lettuce wraps! Great idea!
Does the chicken need to be thawed or frozen??
Thawed chicken.
so can these meals be frozen raw?
Alexis – yes – you could certainly freeze the ingredients in a gallon bag. Then on cooking day, thaw and place into slow cooker.
So I pulled a few of the bags out of the freezer for dinner last night, heated it up in the oven and went to finish a project I had been working on. When I got back the entire meal had been devoured by my boys and there was nothing left, LOL!! They have never done that and are super picky eaters. I mean seriously! One of them I had to put in sensory therapy so he would learn to eat…so no joke here about the picky eater part. I was told they are amazing. I will get to find out for myself tonight, lol!! This definitely makes our Family Favorite list!!
Wow, Monica! Great news- so glad they loved it!
