Crock Pot Crustless Chicken Pot Pie Recipe
Crock Pot Crustless Chicken Pot Pie recipe is a good way to enjoy the flavors of a pot pie without all the carbs of a crust. It is one of my favorite crock pot chicken recipes.
I've mentioned a few times that I have been on a low carb diet for a while now.
Actually, I wouldn't consider it a low carb diet anymore but a way of life. It's been two years this month since I made this huge lifestyle change in the way I eat. I've lost 60 pounds and have maintained the weight loss. YEAH!
As much as I prefer homecooked meals sometimes I like to keep a few low carb meal options in the freezer for busy days when I just don't have time to make lunch.

Atkins Crustless Chicken Pot Pie Copycat recipe
I recently tried the Crustless Chicken Pot Pie from Atkins. It was so good. But with most frozen food options, there is a huge amount of sodium in them.
I've been keeping an eye on my sodium intake also.
I'm okay with occasionally eating a frozen meal that is high in sodium but I try not to make a habit of it.
I fell in love with the Atkins Crustless Chicken Pot Pie.
So much that I decided I was going to make my own Copy Cat version of the Atkins meal so I could control the amount of sodium in my diet and still enjoy the flavors of the Crustless Chicken Pot Pie whenever I craved it.
It is pretty easy to control your sodium intake when you make a recipe at home with real ingredients.
This Crock Pot Crustless Chicken Pot Pie recipe has all the delicious flavors of the frozen one but takes so much better because it is homemade.
