We love this all the family loves it and its a great 1 pot meal, I chuck all our vegies in, doesn’t matter what just all of em
OMG!!! My hubby isn’t big on pasta meals but everyone loved this dish tonight! Definitely will be making it again
My family loves this!!! Its one of the most favourite slow cooker meals!!! And its on the menu again tonight mmmmm
Absolutely sensational,even the wifey was impressed.
Easy to make, recipe makes enough to feed approximately 8 people. Ours fed 2 children, 2 hungry adults (with seconds) and 3 portions for the freezer.
Empty plates all round. Definitely on our “make again ” list
This was Devine!!! I added chopped beans, peas, corn and chopped pumpkin! This I’ll make again and again! Thank you Andrea Bricknell!! ??
Delicious meal the whole family gobbled it up. I cooked ravioli separate and served on that. 5 stars from everyone.
Did you make the stock cube up in water or just crush and sprinkle it in?
Ready that I would just crumble it myself 🙂
Did you cook the pasta first? Currently in slow cooker
Raw
Does it have to be cooking cream or just normal thickened Cream?
Cooking cream specifically resists splitting
Here’s some other tips to help with that How to avoid cream splitting blog
Can i do this with jarred cheese and bacon sauce?
Do you mean a jar of sauce?
Yes but it would change this recipe
Why not create your own with that base 🙂
what can you use instaead of garlic paste? As in how many cloves?
I tsp paste + 1 clove
Absolutely delicious, I added carrots, peas and fresh corn
Do i add “cooked” pasta or do i put in raw?
Thank you
Raw 🙂
A winner in our household. I actually didn’t have the extra cream to add (OOPS) it still worked just not as saucy. My veges I added were carrot, baby corn, capsicum and browned/cooked leek and garlic. Absolutely delicious. I’ve never added raw pasta before and was dubious about only added 1/2 hr before eating BUT it worked!!
We enjoyed this a lot but we changed the soup to mushroom soup that’s all I had in the pantry and added small mushrooms cut in half.
how many L slow cooker is needed? (i’m worried it wont fit, esp when i add the pasta towards the end)
I believe the one pictured is 6L
Do you put the chicken in Raw?
Yes Belinda, in raw 🙂
I felt like a change tonight from my normal chicken dishes that I normally make so I thought I’d try this recipe n it turned out quite nice ? I used chicken tenderloins (diced), added diced carrots with all the other ingredients from the start n I only used 300mls of cream, added frozen baby peas in the last hr with a couple of handfuls of spiral pasta (I didn’t put as much pasta as stated) n there was still plenty of sauce ?
I’ll definitely make it again ?
Thank you for sharing your recipe with us Andrea ???
Definitely going to be a repeat in this house – so yummy. Added onion and mixed herbs for a bit more flavour. Easy with canned veges
Another yummy dish
Just asked my kids the score outta 5 mr fussy screams 5 definitely be making this again
Making this again today only this time I’ll cook the pasta separately because it absorbed all that lovely creamy sauce the last time but it is so yummy. Loads of garlic bread called for
Hi can you put frozen veg straight in ?
Yes if you are adding veg at the start it’s fine for them to be frozen veg as they’ll have plenty of time to cook 🙂
