Today I have two flavorful low carb recipes for you made with chicken broth. Perfect for the summer because you don't have to heat up the house, but good enough to eat year around! After the recipe, please stick around for the giveaway near the bottom of the post.

Sometimes I feel like my cooking suffers in the summer because I avoid the oven, so I don't heat up the house. It seems like we have a very short list of grill and stove top meals that are in frequent rotation. I'm always in search of new recipes to add to the mix. I've been doing some experimenting lately and have come up with two fantastic recipes with simple ingredients that are easy to make. The chicken is made in a slow cooker. The carrot mash utilizes a steamer.
