This truly is the Easiest Crock Pot Pasta recipe. Ready to spend only five minutes making tonight’s dinner? :)
Here are the fine details about this Easiest Crock Pot Pasta dish and why it truly only takes five minutes to prepare:
- You can use whatever cooked meat you have in the fridge or freezer. Leftover hamburger meat, taco meat, cooked chicken, cooked turkey, diced ham, bacon, sausage…
- You can use whatever variety of pasta you like and have on hand.
- You throw the pasta into the crock pot UNCOOKED. This is my favorite.

Do you see how easy this is? Do you see how wonderfully this uses up leftovers you have in your fridge or random bits of pasta you might have in your pantry? Isn’t it lovely that you can dump all this into a crock pot and then walk away?
I suggest serving this dish with a steamed veggie or a salad, and fruit as side dishes. Miracle of miracles, all 10 of the people who eat food at our house loved this. This almost never happens, but with this dish, everyone eats it happily!
Would it work to Substitute whole milk or half&half in this? I love this idea!!!!
Yes that will work!
Ooh this sounds yummy, I’m gonna make this for dinner next week, thanks! Continuing to pray for you as you move and have been telling people the amazing way how God worked out your new home opening up, and answering your prayer for multiple dishwashers. It’s just amazing how our God works! Makes me think of the verse in Ephesians 3:20 that says “Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever.” Such a blessing to see Gods faithfulness in your life and praying He continues to give you the strength and joy you need!
