Chicken pot pie pasta is filled with vegetables and chicken in a delicious creamy sauce, this makes for a perfect weeknight dinner.
This meal is a perfect 30 minute dinner that will make busy nights just little bit easier. This is great to make it you have left over chicken or rotisserie chicken, just shredded or chop the chicken and add it to the pot pie pasta. If you want to make this even easier, purchase the pre-cooked noodles in a pouch, my favorite is Barilla ready pasta – rotini. All you have to do is heat in the microwave for a few seconds and pour the packet into the chicken pot pie mixture.
