IF YOU’RE LOOKING FOR AN EASY COMFORT FOOD CASSEROLE WITH MINIMAL INGREDIENTS, THIS BAKED CHICKEN TETRAZZINI RECIPE IS A MUST-TRY.
Pasta, chicken, cream soup, and Parmesan cheese are the main ingredients. My family thinks it’s the best! Thanks to Plain Chicken for the inspiration! Per my usual M.O., I made a few tweaks to suit my family’s tastes. Everyone raved.
