Chicken Parmesan and Pasta Casserole

Thanks for sharing!

A hearty casserole stuffed with all of the good stuff, this chicken Parmesan and pasta casserole is a  perfectly easy fill’em up dinner!

 A filling dinner that’s quick and easy is a must at our house. We tend to come home HUNGRY at the end of the day and usually tired too. So a pile of pasta with chicken and plenty of cheese like this comforting baked chicken Parmesan pasta meal is a welcome sight for famished eyes!

I like to cook a ton of chicken breasts at once. While I’m doing it, I might as well go for the gusto, right?

I think so! Sometimes I do it in the slow cooker, other times I cook a ton of chicken pressure cooker. I just add a bit of water and a little chicken base and let them do their thing.

After the chicken is cooked to tender perfection, it can be chopped or shredded and added to any number of things. Add lime and Mexican seasonings and you have the perfect filling for enchiladas or tacos.  Throw it in some soup, stew, egg noodles or white chicken chili!

For another fun twist on a chicken parm and pasta mash up, try chicken Parmesan stuffed shells. They are fancy enough for guests, but really pretty simple to put together.
