Slow Cooker Chicken Pot Roast Dinner

Yes, you read that right. No, it does not mean a chicken and a pot roast cooked together! When I first heard the title of this recipe, I was a little confused. In reality, this recipe incorporates chicken thighs and the veggies that are typically served with pot roast, along with chicken gravy. This was a recipe that we all enjoyed and that I'm sure we will be making again. It makes a great meal for when you're on-the-go or for those chilly nights that we haven't quite gotten rid of yet.
