This is another of those "comfort food" dishes I love to prepare. My whole family loved this and I especially liked it because it was easy to prepare and inexpensive. Thanks for posting.

Wow! AWESOME! I took this recipe and ran with it. I used 2 cups of shredded chicken that I seasoned with salt & pepper. I used WAY more cheese, I used about 2 cups in the casserole and 2 cups on top.(we like cheese ) I just mixed everything up in the casserole dish and baked instead of browning the onion, etc. I also used a whole onion instead of just 1/4 c, chopped garlic, and a dried habanero pepper for some heat cuz we like everything hot! DH LOVED it, I will be making this again and again! Next time I'm gonna add broccoli and some more veggies. Thanks for another keeper Paula!

This recipe is right up my alley! This is sort of quick cooking, a homemade Chicken Helper sort of thing, but I really liked it and found it to fit my taste for comfort food. I used cream of mushroom soup sted of chicken, regular milk instead of evaporated and a colby/jack blend of cheese. I added some garlic and black pepper and thought it was wonderful. You could probably used tuna as well as chicken in this dish. Next time, I may add some mushrooms and broccoli and have a great one-dish meal. Thanks!

Mmmm...this was so good! Very creamy and comforting. I added about 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, and a little cracked black pepper and salt and it really added to the flavor of this. And it was very easy to make! I wasn't sure if I was supposed to measure the pasta before or after cooking but I measured out 2 cups uncooked macaroni and it was the right amount. Thank you Paula for this wonderful recipe, I will be making it again and again!!
