4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2-1 teaspoon garlic salt, or to taste
black pepper to taste
1-2 tablespoons dry onion flakes (or 1/2 cup minced fresh onion)

Sprinkle with garlic salt, black pepper to taste and onion. Spread with condensed cream of chicken soup. Place lid on cooker and cook on high for 4-5 hours or until vegetables are tender.
To check for doneness, insert knife to the bottom of cooker, piercing vegetables. Cut chicken into shreds or pieces using two knives in a scissor action. Stir in frozen peas (and if desired a little chicken broth to create desired broth consistency). Replace lid and allow to heat for 20-30 minutes longer. Serve over toasted bread* and sprinkle with shredded cheese.

* Split biscuits or English muffin in half and toast. To toast large amounts, place biscuits on cookie sheet under broiler unit in oven until toasty brown.

Ingredient amounts are for a 12-cup crock-pot. Adjust for larger crock-pots by following "note". Serves 6.

NOTE: Following the 2/3 principle - for larger crock-pots, fill pot approximately 1/3 with potatoes and 1/3 with carrots. Place 4-6 chicken breasts on top, increase garlic salt 1 teaspoon (or to taste), increase soup to 3 cans.
