Crockpot Chicken Bacon Alfredo Recipe

I started making Crockpot Chicken Bacon Alfredo on the days when I leave early and want dinner waiting when I get home. The italian seasoning turns tender after hours in the slow cooker, and the fettuccine or pasta of choice keeps everything comforting. It reheats well the next day, which is half the reason I keep coming back to it.

Using a Crockpot makes this recipe easy to prepare, as you can set it and forget it while the flavors meld together. Perfect for busy weeknights, this dish pairs well with pasta or steamed vegetables.
