delicious

This was easy and kids loved it. My husband is diabetic, so I used less noodles and whole wheat ones, but added a lot more chicken and peas as my daughter loves peas. I also made my own bread crumbs with whole wheat toast. Everyone thought it was great.

Very Tasty & Versatile

After making this recipe once, which everyone gobbled up, I tweaked it the second time. I cut potabello caps into cubes and cooked them with the onions. I also added some ricotta cheese that I bended with soft tofu and added it when I added the parm to the broth (therefore I was able to leave out the chicken because if all the protein in the tofu). Came out great!!
