Directions
Creamy Chicken Pasta Casserole, I am always looking for new ways to cook pasta that is easy and affordable I try to avoid the canned premade soups when at all possible so I came up with this rather easy creamy sauce to change up the standard tomato sauce The kids and hubby loved it You can add anything you and your family likes and play around with the topping (I think a crunchy topping would taste good here too ) For the chicken I just roasted a few breast in the oven but you can use any left over or precooked you have Also keep in mind the brand of Italian seasoning will have a different herb blend so be sure to use one you like
