Freezer to Slow Cooker Chicken Philly Cheesesteak
You can cook this dinner to serve immediately or you can freeze a batch and cook later. You can use as much or as little of the sauce as you would like, depending on how soggy you like your roll. I also like to serve it on the side and use it as a dip. Best served with homemade sweet potato fries!
