Very very good! I think i will add a little more alfredo sauce next time because it was leaning towards the dry side. Trishaloo, i had the same problem with my leftovers but i added more alfredo sauce and then it reheated just fine. Also next time im going to add broccoli :)

I made this but used all low-fat where I could. This is a new family favorite. I added broccoli and some left over chicken - so it was awesome. Didn't have much for left overs

We added frozen peas and carrots to ours. It turned out perfectly and we will definitely be making this again!

Two thumbs up! Can vary by adding meat sauce to layers.

Made this for dinner tonight! It's delicious, fairly easy but quite rich. Will definitely make again but will have as a side dish. Hubby praised it with every mouthful!

I made this recipe yesterday, it was excellent! My husband was not sure about it at first, but loved it. I will be making this again.

I thought it sounded like it would be sickening but it turned out to be fantastic! My boyfriend is always asking for me to make it. Only negative is that it doesn't reheat well.
