Slow-Cooked Sunday Chicken  - 21g Carbs, 5g Fiber

{I buy the low sodium chicken broth in the carton. I prefer the Pacific brand. They keep once opened in the fridge for 7 - 10 days. I would use this instead of water and chicken bouillon granules. I would also omit added salt. If potatoes do not work for you omit then and add something that does such as more green beans.}
