Such an easy pasta dinner! We love this with breadsticks and olive garden style salad.

1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
8 oz. cream cheese
¼ tsp. black pepper
Add these items after cooking time is up:
16 oz. penne pasta (cooked according to package directions and drain well)
¼ cup parmesan cheese
SLOW COOKER SIZE:
6-quart or larger
INSTRUCTIONS:
Add the chicken breasts to the slow cooker.
Pour over the Olive Garden Italian dressing and sprinkle over the parmesan cheese.
Place the cream cheese on top.
Place the lid on the slow cooker. Cook on HIGH for 4 hours or LOW for 5-6 hours.
When the cooking time is almost done, start cooking the pasta on the stovetop as directed on the package.
Shred the chicken with 2 forks. Drain the pasta and add to the chicken and sauce. Stir. Sprinkle over the remaining parmesan cheese.
