Creating Crockpot Garlic Parmesan Chicken Pasta is straightforward when you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the bottom of the crockpot.

8. Finish Cooking: Cover and cook on high for an additional 30-45 minutes until the pasta is cooked al dente.
9. Add Spinach: If using, stir in the fresh spinach during the last 10 minutes of cooking until wilted.
