How to make it

Add chicken, broth, garlic, seasonings, and sun-dried tomatoes to the slow cooker.
Start by layering the chicken and other ingredients in the slow cooker. This will allow the flavors to meld together as they cook.
Cook on high for 3 hours.
Cooking on high heat will ensure the chicken becomes tender and absorbs the flavors from the broth and spices.
Cook penne separately according to package directions.
Cooking the pasta separately ensures it maintains the right texture and doesn't become mushy in the slow cooker.
Blend sauce ingredients until completely smooth.
Creating a smooth sauce will help it incorporate well with the chicken and pasta.
When crockpot is done, chop up your chicken.
Shredding the chicken allows it to mix better with the pasta and sauce.
Mix in cooked pasta.
Combining the pasta with the chicken ensures every bite is flavorful.
Stir blended cottage cheese, cream cheese, and parmesan into the slow cooker.
Adding the sauce to the slow cooker will create a creamy texture that binds the dish together.
Add spinach - mix and let it wilt.
Adding spinach at the end keeps it fresh and adds a nice color contrast to the dish.
Top each individual container with fresh basil right before you eat it.
Garnishing with basil enhances the dish's aroma and taste.
