I have eye balled it in the past and usually mess it up, so it’s worth taking the extra minute to divide evenly into three bowls before you begin layering.

I have tested this recipe several times, and the perfect amount of cook time appears to be right around 2 and a half hours, before the noodles get too soft.

I made this recipe for a pot luck/ food day at the office. 1/2 the group is meat free so it was the perfect combination of hearty and meatless. I added some diced green pepper and used whole wheat penne pasta. The whole wheat penne kept its texture while being kept warm throughout the afternoon. Everyone seemed to enjoy it and no left overs so I consider it a big hit!

Brilliant! So easy I made it while camping in our rv. Taste and texture turns out like lasagna. The whole family lived it!Crock Pot Million Dollar Pasta has layers of sauce, pasta, beef and a delicious cream sauce all topped with melty, gooey mozzarella cheese!

Crock Pot Chicken Spaghetti

My personal favorite spaghetti sauce is Rao's Roasted Garlic. But it can be pretty pricey since you need two jars for this recipe. I've used the Walmart brand (as you see below.) I've used the Aldi brand as well and they all work fine. You can use any of your favorite marinara/spaghetti sauce that you enjoy.

Cottage cheese is my go-to as a substitute for ricotta cheese. It's a more budget-friendly choice and you honestly don't taste any real difference in this recipe.

Of course not. You can leave it out if you don't want a meaty pasta. You can switch it out for ground Italian sausage, ground turkey, etc.

A slow cooker is a healthy way to cook and the perfect appliance for hands-free cooking. This model automatically switches to a warm setting when the cook time has ended.

Crockpot Chicken And Noodles Recipe (+ Video)

Yes! One of the beauties of this recipe is that even the pasta noodles cook in the slow cooker. They are added to the slow cooker dry along with the rest of the ingredients, and cook in the tomato sauce liquid.

To keep pasta from becoming mushy in the crock pot, be sure to check for doneness periodically and serve once they are tender. It takes slow cooker pasta 3 to 4 hours on low or 1 to 2 hours on high. Check pasta doneness sooner than later, especially as some slow cookers are more powerful than others.

I would not recommend putting the veggies in raw, because when they’re sautéed first rather than added raw they release some liquid, which helps keep the pasta from getting too soggy in the slow cooker. Also, raw veggies may still be crunchy when the pasta is finished cooking.
