Tweaked this from the Tasty FB page. It's an easy weeknight meal that all comes together in one pot. The sauce is built with chicken stock and thickened from the starch in the noodles released while cooking. Cream and parmesan cheese add depth. Short prep and cook time with less dishes!

This recipe was found floating around Pinterest. I jazzed it up a bit and boy, was it delicious. The flavor is absolutely titillating! 👌🏻It holds a special place in my heart as well, because it happens to be one of the last meals I made for my grandmother before she passed away. She had always held an appreciation for good food, and I cooked for her and my mom as much as time would allow. I’m very grateful that I got to do that one last time.RIP Grandma Jane. I love you forever. Plain Jane -
