This is an easy and flavorful pasta dish. I love cooking in the Crock Pot and coming home to the smell of dinner when I've been gone all day.

If you need a quick-to-prep dinner recipe, try this creamy Crock Pot chicken with pasta. As long as chicken breasts are in the freezer, it's made with what is in most kitchens. Combining cream of chicken soup, cream cheese, and butter creates a creamy and rich sauce. A packet of Italian seasoning adds a zesty zing to it. We served this chicken dinner over fettuccine pasta, but use your favorite or what's handy.
