"This is from kraftfoods.com and is delicious!! Went over very well with DH & 5 year old! Enjoy! P.S. I added asparagus to make it a complete meal. It would be good with broccoli, spinach or any other green vegetable as well."

Delicious and easy! I made a few minor changes by using regular cream cheese and 1% milk. I also used the whole package of pasta and increased the milk to 1 cup. The other change I made was using 2 cloves of chopped garlic (added to the bacon mixture with the green onions and mushrooms) instead of the garlic powder which I didn't have. Delicious and creamy -- and so easy! Thanks for sharing!
