Directions

Turn crock pot on high.  Put a whole chicken or 2-4 breasts into the pot.  Add a lb. of baby carrots or chopped sliced whole carrots. If you plan to freeze the leftovers, peel the carrots first, or else they turn black when frozen.  Add at least half of a bunch of celery, including the tops, sliced lengthwise and then crosswise.  Add one onion, chopped.  Add Italian seasoning.  Add 1 1/2 cups water.  Add 4-6 medium size potatoes, quartered.  Put on the lid.  Cook 6-8 hours.  Serve as is or over rice.
