Method
 

Preparation
  1. Begin by gathering your ingredients for the Slow Cooker Chicken Pot Pie Pasta. Chop your boneless, skinless chicken into bite-sized pieces, and chop fresh vegetables such as carrots, peas, and celery. Place all the cut ingredients into your slow cooker, ensuring they are evenly distributed for even cooking.
  2. Next, pour the cream of chicken soup and low-sodium broth over the chicken and vegetables in the slow cooker. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients, creating a rich and creamy base. Cover with the lid and set your slow cooker to low heat for 6-8 hours or high heat for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender.
  3. About 30 minutes before the cooking time is up, add your choice of pasta to the slow cooker. Stir them into the creamy mixture, ensuring they are submerged.
  4. If you desire extra creaminess, mix in shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese, or wait and sprinkle additional cheese on top before serving.
  5. Once your Slow Cooker Chicken Pot Pie Pasta is complete, give it a final stir and ladle the creamy mixture into bowls. For a pop of freshness, sprinkle with chopped parsley, if desired.
