Prep Time

Cook Time
Once the casserole has been assembled, it will need to cook in the crock pot for 4-5 hours on low heat. The cook time will depend on your crock pot, so be sure to check the casserole halfway through to make sure it is cooking properly.
Ingredients
- 2-3 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 cups uncooked penne pasta
- 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 (15 oz) jar Alfredo sauce
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Start by spraying the crock pot with nonstick cooking spray. Place the chicken in the bottom of the crock pot and add the uncooked pasta. Top with the cream cheese, Alfredo sauce, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese. Stir everything together to combine.
Cover the crock pot and cook on low heat for 4-5 hours, or until the chicken is cooked through and the pasta is tender. Stir the casserole halfway through the cooking time to make sure everything is cooking evenly.
When the casserole is done cooking, remove the lid and stir the ingredients together. Serve the casserole with a side of garlic bread or a fresh salad. Enjoy!
