Steps to Create Your Crock Pot Chicken Pot Pie Pasta

Place the chicken breasts at the bottom of the Crock Pot.
Add the frozen mixed vegetables on top of the chicken.
In a separate bowl, mix the cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, and black pepper. Pour this mixture over the chicken and veggies.
Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
Once the chicken is done, shred it with two forks and stir everything together in the pot.
Add the uncooked pasta directly into the pot, mixing well. Cover and cook on high for an additional 30 minutes, or until the pasta is cooked to your liking.
If desired, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top before serving.

I remember one time my son helped me shred the chicken, and he was so proud to be my little sous-chef. Cooking can be a fun family activity!

Tips for Making the Best Crock Pot Chicken Pot Pie Pasta

Here are a few hacks to elevate your Crock Pot Chicken Pot Pie Pasta:

Make it creamy: If you want an extra creamy sauce, consider adding a splash of heavy cream or half-and-half just before serving.
Switch it up: Experiment with different veggies! Fresh spinach, broccoli, or even mushrooms can be great additions.
Spice things up: For a little heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or some diced jalapeños.

Serving Suggestions and Pairings

This dish is perfect on its own, but if you want to add some sides, consider serving it with a fresh green salad or some crusty bread for dipping. Trust me; everyone will be going back for seconds!

Storage and Reheating Tips

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. When it comes time to reheat, just pop it in the microwave or back in the Crock Pot on low until warmed through. You might need to add a splash of chicken broth to loosen it up a bit.
