For other casserole ideas, try this breakfast casserole, or this yummy chicken bacon ranch casserole! Also this Broccoli Cheese Casserole is truly amazing!Â
This time of year I rely heavily on my slow cooker and casserole recipes, due to ease and how well they fit into a busy schedule.
Chicken and Spinach Pasta Casserole is very easy to put together and can be refrigerated until you bake.
The chicken, pasta and spinach combine nicely with the cheese to make one great tasty dinner.
It’s up there with all the ‘comfort food’ greats.
Another wonderful thing about this recipe is that it’s versatile, so add more or less cheese if you’d like {or a non-fat variety}.
You can also use other noodles of choice.
My kids gobble this casserole up, and my oldest asked for this one to replace other casseroles I make. It’s always a win when everyone in the family enjoys a meal!

II love casserole and this one is not only delicious looking but very colorful too.I love that it has spinach, tomatoes and cheese in it.It just doesn’t get any better than that.Thanks for posting this.
This looks and sounds awesome and I’m totally going to make it soon. One question though, how much does this make? I need to know if this will be enough for my family of 6 or if I need to double it.
Oh, no need to double it. It feeds our family of 5 plus lots left to have the next day too! 😉 ENJOY!
Great nutritious casserole with our favorite ingredients! I love making dinner in the morning or the night before so 4 pm isn’t so chaotic at home.
Oh wow, what a great easy recipe. I am definitely gonna try this out this week. Thanks~
Looks like something I’d like to try and hubby would like to eat!
Don’t care much for the taste of spinach but this totally makes it look delicious!
I made this last night and it’s absolutely delicious! So very easy to put together too, which was good because I didn’t really feel like cooking but needed to get something on the table.
I didn’t have flavored cream cheese, only plain. I used mini farfalle pasta since that was all I had in the cabinets. Also I used the Italian blend shredded cheese, with a little extra on top. It fit nicely into a 2qt casserole dish.
This is so flavorful! It is definitely going into rotation at our house. Thank you so very much for sharing!
