Here is a tip, if you use a large container of spices clean the lid where it closes so it will close properly. Some times especially with multiple cooks things happen.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Chop the celery and dice the onion. Sauté in the butter with pepper, seasoned salt, and garlic. Sauté for 12 minutes.

I had the lid pop open on the seasoned salt and poured out a 1/4 cup that went in. So I grated a medium sized potato and added in. This helped tone down the saltiness. Sauté the potato with the onion and celery.

Boil the chicken in the salty peppered water. When the chicken is done remove from water, and add the shells. Cook till done but don't throw out the water. Preheat oven 450° Fahrenheit.

I've eaten this before but never made it, so I look up the recipe online and this is what I found. I wasn't able to put any cheese or veggies in it due to picky eaters and lactose intolerant family members, but it turned out all right. eEveryone liked it.. Teapot1991m -
