But instead of making the same old boring pot roast and carrots with potatoes, try this different flavor and serve it with old fashioned mashed potatoes and green beans on the side for a hearty but healthy alternative. Cranberries are packed full of healthy vitamins and nutrition.

African Chicken Stew

African Chicken Stew

One of our favorite healthy and hearty crockpot recipes for a family dinner was created when my daughter was in an International Fair at her school and we adapted a recipe we found in an African cookbook. It’s yummy and very different, but kids and adults alike enjoy the exotic sweet and savory flavor of this dish.
