Chicken & Squash Casserole image

Adapted from a recipe in one of my books. This is a great autumn/winter casserole - very tasty and ever so healthy! I've given the directions for cooking in the oven but this can easily be done in a crock pot as well - just follow steps 2 and 3 and fling it all in the crock pot, cooking on low for 8 hours.

2 chicken breasts
1 carrot

1/2 butternut squash (peeled)
1 tablespoon sage
chicken stock cube

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 190c.

  • Using some 1 cal spray (or olive oil if you prefer), brown the chicken and soften the onion, squash and carrot for approximately 5 minutes.
