Comfort food! I don't make this very often, but it is a special treat. Comfort food! I don't make this very often, but it is a special treat.

Ingredients

    12 oz egg noodles (or any pasta, really)
    2 cups of chopped, cooked chicken breast (no skin)
    1 cup diced celery
    1 cup diced onion
    2 cups skim milk
    4 Tbsp butter
    1 cup shredded 2% mozarella
    1/2 cup shredded parmesan
    1/4 cup flour
    1/4 cup breadcrumbs

Directions

Bring a large pot of water to boil for the noodles, with a pinch of salt. Or you can boil them in chicken broth. Preheat the oven to 350.
Meanwhile, sweat the onions and celery in the butter until they are translucent. Add flour, cook and stir for a minute or so, until the flour is just barely beginning to turn gold. Whisk in milk. Cook and stir until thick and bubbly, then remove from heat. Stir in 1/4 cup of mozarella.
Add the chicken and the boiled, drained noodles to the sauce and toss. Pour into a 13x9 inch baking dish. Sprinkle both the remaining cheeses on top, then the breadcrumbs. Bake @ 350 until hot, about 20 minutes.
