This healthy crockpot (slow cooker) turmeric chicken and potatoes is one of my favorite recipes to make. It’s super healthy and has so many amazing health benefits because of the turmeric.

I don’t know about you, but lately, I have seen turmeric everywhere. It’s like it’s the year turmeric.

Healthy crockpot turmeric chicken vegetables and potatoes recipe, healthy turmeric chicken dinner recipe, turmeric dinner recipeWhile I’m not quite ready to drink a turmeric latte, I have been using the spice for years. And have known about it for years for its medicinal qualities.

During the day, I help run a dietary supplement company (True Botanica) and one of our amazing products is actually a turmeric product called Curcumin Plus (curcumin is the active ingredient of turmeric, known for its anti-inflammatory properties).

What are some turmeric benefits?

  • It has natural anti-inflammatory properties
  • It is a great source of antioxidants
  • It is a natural mood-booster

There are literally tens of thousands of articles saying how amazing turmeric is. Since this is a recipe post, I’ll get back to describing how to make a meal with turmeric.

So what I like to do is either make something ahead that I can just reheat (like this make ahead quiche recipe) or prep something that I can then just put into the crockpot the next day.

I prep it the night before and then let it marinate in the fridge and then the next day or a few days later (the chicken and vegetables can sit in the marinade for a few days, it builds flavor) I just empty the contents of the bag into a slow cooker on my way out the door, and then come home to a delicious meal.

He literally steals the potatoes off my plate when we eat this. And if I’m feeding it to him with other things, he will push aside the other things on his tray and go straight for the turmeric potato pieces!

    • What helps you power through the tough days? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Today was A DAY! Endless meetings, issues and to dos. I ended up staying at work 2 hours late and was about to cry on my way home, and then I realized that I was on my way to pick up my amazing son (whose smile lights up my life) and how lucky I am: just this weekend I was working on a project I’m so excited about for my food blog business (and the fact that I’ve built a business others would dream about having) and I have so many amazing people around me...just the thought of all the really good things gets me through.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sometimes you just have to slug through the work, keep it moving and look at all the amazing things you actually do have in life!! This year my “word” or (phrase if you will) is getting it done, and that’s what I’m going to continue to do. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
