Cuisine: American
Keyword: Chicken Broccoli Mac and Cheese, Crockpot Recipes
Servings: 6 people

Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken breast
  • 1 packet of Ranch seasoning
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 5 cups fresh broccoli florets
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • 8 oz of shell pasta or elbow macaroni noodles
  • 1 1/2 cups of whole milk
  • 8 oz cheddar cheese shredded
  • 4 oz cream cheese
  • 1 tsp dry mustard seasoning

Instructions

  • Cut the chicken into cubes. Spray a crockpot with cooking spray. Add chicken, Ranch seasoning, chicken broth, minced garlic, and broccoli to a slow cooker.
  • Cook on low for about 3-4 hours or until chicken reaches 165 degrees.
  • Boil pasta for 3 minutes and drain. This will only parboil the pasta which is important, so that the pasta doesn't overcook in the crockpot.
  • In the crock pot combine pasta, milk, cheddar cheese, dry mustard seasoning, and cream cheese.
  • Stir everything together and cook on low for about an hour. Stir at least a few times during this hour.

Notes

During the very last hour of cooking if you think it needs a little bit more milk add milk slowly until it reaches your desired consistency.
