Slow Cooker Chicken Parmesan Pasta Recipe

Makes 1 Bear Snackie | Cooking time 3 hours 

Ingredients

  • 900 g chicken breast, cubed
  • ​equivalent to 2-3 breasts
  • 3-4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp basil
  • ¼ tsp oregano
  • ¼ tsp rosemary
  • ¼ tsp parsley
  • 400 g (1 can) diced tomatoes
  • 650 ml chicken stock
  • 350 g penne pasta
  • 60 g (2 cups) spinach, roughly chopped
  • 80 g (1 cup) mozzarella cheese
  • 30 g ( ½ cup) parmesan cheese, grated
  • fresh basil to garnish

Method

  1. Place chicken, garlic, onion, herbs, diced tomatoes, and 150 ml chicken stock into a slow cooker and cook on high for 2 ½ hours.
  2. Add pasta and remaining stock and cook again for 30-45 minutes, depending on how firm you like the pasta. If cooking for 45 minutes, stir at the 30-minute point if possible.
  3. Finally, add spinach and cheeses and stir well before placing the lid on for a few minutes to allow the spinach to wilt and the cheeses to melt.
  4. Serve in your favourite We Might Be Tiny Snackie. Sprinkle with additional parmesan and fresh basil, then enjoy.

Flexibility with Ingredients

Our Slow Cooker Chicken Parmesan Pasta recipe is excellent as is but can easily be adjusted to suit your family's unique preferences or dietary requirements - a quality that makes it one of our all-time favourites over at the WMBT HQ.

Do you have a vegetarian in the family? Just switch out the chicken for a medley of vibrant veggies – bell peppers, zucchini, and mushrooms would work beautifully in this dish. 

If spinach isn't hitting the right note, don't fret. Easily replace it with broccoli or peas. The options are endless, providing flexibility while keeping meals 'nutrilicious'.

Spice Up the Presentation

We all know kids eat with their eyes. So why not make our Slow Cooker Chicken Parmesan Pasta even more fun? Get creative in how you serve it! Consider sprinkling additional basil leaves and parmesan on top of the served dish. 

You can also involve the kids in assembling their plates. Let them choose a unique pasta shape or add a side of their preferred veggies. Serve them up in uber-cute Snackies for an extra wow factor. 

Remember, when children participate in meal preparation, they're more likely to enjoy their food. Make each meal memorable and filled with love to encourage a healthy perspective toward nutrition and maybe even inspire a future chef!

Mastering the Slow Cooker: Tips for Busy Parents

These one-pot wonders are a lifesaver for days packed with to-dos and never-ending tasks. Here are some tips to maximise this mighty appliance and ensure your children enjoy nutritious meals:

Plan Ahead: Use a few quiet minutes to come up with a week's slow cooker meals. A plan relieves the stress of last-minute decisions and ensures you have all the necessary ingredients.

Prep the Night Before: Assemble ingredients in the pot the night before and store it in the fridge overnight. Simply place it back in the cooker and turn it on in the morning. 

Start with the Right Recipe: Choose recipes designed for slow cookers, like our Slow Cooker Chicken Parmesan Pasta. 

Don't Overcrowd: Overcrowding can lead to unevenly cooked food. Only fill the pot up to two-thirds to ensure the heat circulates efficiently and promotes even cooking. 

Patience is a Virtue: Avoid repeatedly lifting the lid which causes the slow cooker to lose heat, prolonging the process.

Bring Fun and Ease into the Kitchen

Meal preparation doesn't have to be exhausting or nerve-wracking. A slow cooker can keep your family eating well-rounded meals, even on the busiest days.

Using our Slow Cooker Chicken Parmesan Pasta recipe and We Might Be Tiny Snackies, mealtime can be an enjoyable and stress-free experience, creating unforgettable moments around the dinner table.

Now, that's a win-win!

Freeze & Bake Poddies® - Dusty Rose
L. (Melbourne, Victoria, Australia)
Adorable mini shapes

These are so easy to use and very handy when wanting to make small individual cakes without having to get all the patty pans out - great size for lunchbox treats & such a cute shape.
Only wish the mould was a bit smaller so it could fit in my air fryer for even more quick & convenient cooking!
