    Very good & filling! However, the stats seem to be off (I noticed that Sparkpeople says 2oz of pasta is only 74 calories when in reality it is usually about 200). I made it with whole wheat pasta and nonfat milk and my stats were 355 calories, 41 carbs, 8 g fat and 27 g protein - 7/9/07

    I used 98% fat free cream of mushroom soup and fat free cream cheee. Doubled the sauce and added a ton of mushrooms, broccoli, and red peppers. I got 12 hearty 1-1/4 cup servings. The sauce was a little thick, next time I will cut the amount of cream cheese in half. - 7/14/10

    I used 2 tsp. of zesting italian dressing instead of the dry italian dressing mix, and added 1/4 c. each of sauted sweet white onion and green pepper. I also added 1 tsp. of dry red chili peppers. Italian chicken with a kick. - 9/21/08

    This works great in the slow cooker. Just toss everything in, set on low, out the door you go. When you get home, dinner is done and the house smells delicious! Thanks. - 3/9/11

    Yum! I made it with homemade cream of mushroom soup (easy to make a big batch and freeze it for when you need it) and since I didn't have an Italian dressing mix, just used herbs d'provence instead. Added carrots, green beans and peas, and served over No Yolk noodles. A hit! - 7/14/09
