Perfect Presentation Platters

Crockpot: I used my favorite 6-quart crockpot from Walmart, which is at a great price! It also has a cute 2-quart option for smaller meals and an 8-quart option for larger meals.

Large Serving Bowls: There are so many choices for any budget! I love this beautiful stoneware bowl or you also can’t go wrong with this option from JC Penney for larger batches. For a higher-end choice, I love this white floral bowl by MacKenzie-Childs, as well this everyday bowl from her collection, which also comes in blue.

Individual Serving Plates: For adorable serving plates, I am obsessed with this beautiful coordinating set from Target for a great price! JC Penney also has these stunning floral plates that I think you’ll love!

Individual Bowls: If you’d prefer to serve this BBQ Ranch Chicken Pasta Salad in individual or smaller bowls, Walmart has these beautiful gray stoneware bowls with silver rims that are so elegant! I also love this black-and-white coordinating set or this colorful terracotta Spanish style.

Kitchen Links: I get asked all the time about the products in the background of my kitchen. Much of it is from MacKenzie-Childs, which I have slowly grown a collection of over the years! My favorites are this checkered chopping board, my black and white checkered teapot, and the gray and white checkered utensil holder. I also have this enamel canister that you can find in small, medium, or large.

Can I Prep This Crockpot Cajun Chicken Fettuccine Ahead of Time?

That’s what I love about Crockpot recipes! You can get this cooking in the morning, come home from work, and it’s just about ready! It also makes great leftovers served either cold or hot.

Storing Leftovers

Speaking of leftovers, store and Crockpot Cajun Chicken Fettuccine in a Tupperware container and refrigerate, where it should stay fresh for about three days. You can also use a Ziploc Bag!

Enjoy!
