Steal of the Week: Chicken Penne Casserole

A huge thanks to Kalyn's Kitchen once again for a great recipe! With family in town and 3 people needing to carb up before their 8K run, this was a family friendly and tasty choice.

My modifications were simple:

I precut my chicken into bite sized pieces. I heated a small amount of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet and cooked 5 cloves of minced garlic about 1 minute before adding the chicken. I sprinkled about a tablespoon of poultry seasoning over the chicken while I sauteed it. Then I used the chicken as the recipe indicates.



I also used Campbell's Cream of Chicken soup as she suggests, but I used the 98% Fat free, Healthy Request. The final change was just using two 7oz packages of 2% Kraft shredded mozzarella, one package for each layer.

A HUGE hit!
