Made this today with some left over rotisserie turkey breast. Biggest problem was fighting my wife for space in the kitchen while she was making her breakfast. Modified the recipe considerably and it still turned out great. Had some left over diced carrots, diced red bell pepper, and added them to the dish. Sauteed the veggies (onions, mushrooms, carrots, peppers, and peas) in Balanced Spread margarine. Added a 1/4 cup of flour and skim milk, rather than the cream of mushroom soup and chicken broth. Did add a tsp of low sodium chicken bullion to keep that flavor. So tried to keep the fat a little lower. Added the linguini, cheese, Worcester, and put in a baking dish. Covered and put in refrigerator for the rest of the day. Topped with the parmesan and paprika and baked for 35 min at 350 deg. Turned out great!!! Will definitely do this one again.

This was delicious -- the kids cleaned their plates and my husband went for seconds! I left out the peppers (DH and the kids all hate them, unfortunately) and I used one can of cream of mushroom and one can of cream of chicken since that's what I had. Otherwise I didn't change anything... great recipe!

This was my first attempt at making Chicken Tetrazzini and it was delicious! Easy recipe to follow, very tasty, reheated well and was just as good leftover. I cut the recipe in 1/2 since it is only me and my husband, and the only changes I made were using the "heart healthy" cream of mushroom soup and white wine instead of sherry, because those were the items I had on hand. Very delicious recipe! Thanks!
