It was great! I chopped up an onion and fried it in the butter before adding the flour, and I used mature cheddar cheese instead of American. I also took a page from another recipe and put some of the cheese on top with some crushed crackers!

This recipe was made on 11/23/09 for the " One Dish Wonders " event, and as part of our dinner.Since I didn't need the full recipe, it was made as follows. I cut everything in half except for the chicken. And since SO doesn't care for peppers that much, I substituted the same amount of freeze dried peppers that had been reconstituted. I think what set this apart from other pasta and chicken casseroles, was the addition of the peppers. We all really enjoyed the taste. Thanks for posting, and " Keep Smiling :) "

I made this tonight and my boyfriend and I loved it! We are health nuts so I used soy milk, whole wheat macaroni and cheese made from 2% milk. It turned out great! It's a quick and easy recipe and I will definitely be making this again.
