    I followed this recipe but it didn't work for me. My pasta was over cooked and chicken under cooked 😥

    If I used zucchini noodles instead and cooked these in varoma, how much water so you think I will need?

    Very yummy. i added wholegrain mustard for extra flavour and didn't have evaporated milk so used normal milk and it turned out lovey.

    This was lovely.  Steamed the asparagus, chopped into small pieces and mixed it into the pasta & chicken mixture.  Even my fussy 8 year old asked for seconds. Thanks for the recipe!

    So glad you enjoyed it! My kids love it to and I don't have to feel so guilty about such a creamy sauce tmrc_emoticons.;) 

    If you find it too thick' just reduce or even leave out the cream cheese. Frozen veg (peas, corn, broccoli, cauli) can be thrown in with the pasta for extra veggies for the kids, just add a little extra water if necessary.
