Great, simple recipe. I used about 3/4 cup of miracle whip b/c that's what I had left in the jar. I didn't have Mrs Dash so I used Nature's Seasoning. I also used only 1 can of cream of chicken soup and Savory herb stuffing. It was super easy to put together and only using 1 can of soup kept the sauce from being too "soupy" . I tasted the filling before I stuffed to be sure it was not overpowered by the miracle whip and it was just fine. Definately a keeper!

I made it with chicken gravy from scratch. I also used frozen pre-stuffed shells that I already had in the freezer. I let them un-thaw first and made the chicken stuffing mix as instructed, but I forgot the sour cream. I don't think it's a must have, and I stuffed the shells. Baked for about 35 minutes then added the sauce and cheese and it was so good. I'll take a picture once I reheat it up. Great recipe and a good way to use left overs from holiday meals.

Oh my goodness, this is one amazing dish! I'm a tiny bit obsessed with chicken and stuffing, so I knew this was going to be a hit with the pasta and sauce. Made exactly as the recipe stated and it turned out great. This is being added to our dinner rota!

My husband was very skeptical of this recipe, but I insisted on trying it. Success! I made this exactly as written and both of us and our roommate all enjoyed this dish. Will be making again for sure. Thanks!

This was yummy! The only thing I changed was to add some of the cream of chicken (and a little sour cream) to the filling. I did not like the taste of the filling with just the Miracle Whip. I am glad I decided to taste the filling before stuffing the shells! Miracle Whip has such a distinct taste, it was a little overpowering. It "calmed" it down to have some of the cream of chicken inside the filling too. Great recipe though. Kids loved it. (Sorry, forgot the stars the first time!)
