I decided to do a slightly different take on what I think people may come up with when they think of fruit for this week's theme. This recipe may/may not sound like the most appetizing dish, but let me tell you, it's delicious! I love it!
Mandarin Orange Slow Cooker Chicken (4 servings at 5 pts each)
4 boneless skinless chicken halves
1 medium onion, sliced
1/4 cup orange juice concentrate
1 tsp. poultry seasoning
