Crock Pot Cheesy Chicken and Noodles is a creamy and delicious meal made with spaghetti pasta, cheddar cheese, chicken and a few other ingredients that the entire family will love. When there’s cheese and noodles involved you can’t really go wrong, right?!?
I am learning what a valuable tool a slow cooker can be for today’s busy families. Growing up in a family where a slow cooker wasn’t used it is a new territory for me creating recipes. I love being able to offer a variety of recipes on the blog.
Personally, I really only used a slow cooker to make appetizers, candy or keep foods warm at parties. I plan to incorporate more Crock Pot meals into my meal planning. After a busy day in the garden or other activities it’s nice to have a home cooked meal ready for supper when you don’t feel like standing over the stove.
The slow cooker meals that I have created so far are versatile too. The Crock Pot Chicken and Spaghetti Noodles is no exception. You could easily add vegetables to this recipe to switch things up, such as fresh onion, carrots or mushrooms.

This turned out really delicious! I cooked the noodles by themselves after removing the chicken to shred it--primarily because I have never cooked pasta or rice in a slow cooker before. I wanted to have a good handle on cooking speed, consistency, sticking together, etc. Added the chicken and cheese back into the fully cooked noodles. Totally tasty recipe! Thank you! :-)
