⭐ Ingredients (Only 5!)

• 2 cups farfalle pasta (uncooked)
• 3 cups chicken broth or vegetable broth
• 1 cup heavy cream (or a lighter cream alternative)
• 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese (or a mix of Italian cheeses)
• 1–2 cups cooked chicken, diced (optional but counts as one ingredient if used; you may replace it with mushrooms for a vegetarian version)

Optional but recommended: Salt, pepper, garlic powder, basil, or parsley (these don’t count toward the five ingredients).

🍲 Step-by-Step Cooking Method

Step 1: Prepare Your Slow Cooker

Lightly grease the inside of your slow cooker with a tiny bit of oil or non-stick spray.
This prevents pasta from sticking later and makes cleanup easier.

Step 2: Add the Broth

Pour 3 cups of broth into the slow cooker.
This liquid will:

• Cook the farfalle gently
• Infuse flavor
• Prevent dryness

Make sure the broth fully covers the bottom of the cooker.
