How about an easy crock pot recipe for a Monday meal? This one actually requires zero thinking! It’s so easy but the flavors that develop are layered and rich. It’s a clean & healthy version of the classic Murgh Makhani or Chicken Tikki Masala. I served this over brown rice and I also garnished it with just a dollop of unsweetened coconut milk yogurt for extra creaminess. (You can also use almond milk yogurt). As a side, I served sautéed baby portobello mushroom which were cooked on the stovetop in a little truffle oil & salt/pepper. Only 340 calories for one serving (two large chicken thighs with plenty of sauce). My meal (the chicken, rice, & mushrooms) was a total of 545 calories. Yummy & easy!!!
