Shredded chicken

I needed some shredded chicken for tonight's chicken pot pie. So, I decided to make extra shredded chicken so I can have for the week for lunches and dinner recipes. Also, I have leftover stuff from Mediterranean pizza just no chicken so I can season it when I want to eat it.

Shredded Chicken
6 frozen chicken breasts
1 bay leaf
4 cups of chicken broth (I used better then bouillon paste you can use bouillon cubes too)
Salt
Pepper
Garlic powder

I use a crock pot liner. Then place frozen chicken in crock pot. Season with salt pepper and garlic powder. You can adjust and add seasonings as you like. Pour 4 cups/ 1 qt of broth on top. Cook on low for 6-8 hours. You can cook on high for 4-6. Shred with fork when done or should fall apart.

I am going to store what I don't need tonight in a Rubbermaid to use through the week. I am sure if you wanted you can use stock for stuff later.

Optional would be celery/ carrots for flavor and to eat and use in soup
