We love easy pasta dishes for the crockpot! Try my Baked Spaghetti or my Beef Stroganoff recipe too! I found this recipe in my Facebook group and had to try it out! You can make this Olive Garden Chicken with or without the pasta! Serve over rice or just with green steamed vegetables. I found this recipe in my Facebook group and had to try it out!

1.5 lbs. boneless skinless chicken breast (1.5-2 pounds works fine)

Add these items after cooking time is up:
16 oz. penne pasta cooked according to package directions and drain well

Instructions:
Add the chicken breasts to the slow cooker.
Pour over the Olive Garden Italian dressing and sprinkle over the parmesan cheese and pepper.
Place the cream cheese on top.
Place the lid on the slow cooker. Cook on HIGH for 4 hours or LOW for 5-6 hours.
When the cooking time is almost done, start cooking the pasta on the stove top as directed on the package.
Shred the chicken with 2 forks. Drain the pasta and add to the chicken and sauce. Stir. Sprinkle over the remaining parmesan cheese.
