  • 1/2 tsp salt (adjust to taste)

  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup

  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Add to slow cooker:
    Place chicken, onion, garlic, broth, frozen veggies, thyme, salt, and pepper in the slow cooker.

  2. Cook:
    Cover and cook on Low for 6–7 hours or High for 3–4 hours, until chicken is fully cooked.

  3. Shred chicken:
    Remove chicken, shred it with two forks, then return it to the slow cooker.

  4. Add soup & cream:
    Stir in the cream of chicken soup and heavy cream.

  5. Cook pasta:
    Boil the pasta separately according to package directions. Drain and add it to the slow cooker. Stir everything to combine.

    Stir in shredded cheese if using. Let it melt and blend into the sauce.

  7. Serve:
    Spoon into bowls and garnish with parsley if desired.

Note 📝:
You can use any pasta you like, but short shapes like rotini, shells, or penne work best to soak up all that creamy goodness! 🍝 Want to save time? Use rotisserie chicken and skip the slow cooking—just warm everything together until heated through. Perfect for busy nights! 💡
