Ingredients

1 Whole Chicken
Salt & Pepper To Taste
2 TBSP Olive Oil Or Butter
1 Cup Chicken Broth (Use less if you don't want any stock, 1/4 Cup will do)
2 Whole Sweet Potatoes Chopped
2 Whole Yellow Onions Chopped
3 Whole Carrots Chopped
2 Stalks Celery Chopped

Instructions

Place all chopped vegetables on the bottom of the Crockpot.
Add broth, remember you don't need to add much if you're not making chicken stock to use for vegetable soup with the cooked veggies.
Place chicken overtop of the vegetables and chicken stock.
Spread oil or butter all over the chicken, then add salt and pepper on top to season.
Place lid on the Crockpot and cook for 4-6 hours on low.

Notes

21 Day Fix: 3/4 Cup is 1 Red

Aim for 6 green containers when adding your vegetables.

Adding liquid is not necessary, but I would add at least 1/4 Cup of chicken or vegetable broth for moisture until the chicken gets cooking!
