I actually found this recipe on TikTok awhile back. I eventually got to a point where I was seeing someone making this every couple weeks and decided I needed to give it a try! I am so glad I did! This is the perfect meal to toss in the crock pot before you leave for work (or while home for a quick lunch break). Simply set it until the chicken is cooked, add in the cooked noodles and you’re all set to enjoy! This one is a family favorite!

Ingredients:

How to Make Olive Garden Chicken Pasta

You will start by adding 1.5 pounds of chicken breast to a large Crock Pot or slow cooker. Add an 8 oz block of cream cheese, 8 oz of Olive Garden Italian dressing and about 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese (grated or shredded is fine). Cook on LOW for 6 hours or HIGH for 4 hours. With about a half hour remaining on the slow cooker, cook a 16 oz box of Penne pasta according to the instructions on the box. Once the chicken is cooked, shred and add the pasta noodles and give it a good stir until well combined.
