  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped

  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

  3. Add the cooked onion and garlic, diced tomatoes, spinach, chicken broth, heavy cream, sun-dried tomatoes, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to the slow cooker.
  4. Stir to combine.
  5. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until chicken is cooked through and tender.

Notes

  • This recipe is a great option for meal planning and can be made ahead.
