Slow-Cooker Lentils with Chicken and Kale image

This easy and basic recipe cooks all day in your slow cooker and is ready when you are. It's easy to fit your family's taste by changing the seasonings and/or meat. (Next time, I am going to try adding some bacon. Serve with your favorite starch: rice, noodles, or potatoes.
