Made this one during a OAMC session. Against my better judgement, I added the noodles and froze them already cooked. They turned to mush once I thawed out and reheated. The flavor was good. I will make again, but I'll just cook the noodles fresh that day.

This made a lot and was very quick and easy. My family liked it but I added half a jar of pasta sauce to give it just a little more depth. I think I'll add some tofu next time too. Thanks for posting, I'll be making this again.

A nice enough recipe and certainly a change from the usual heavy spaghetti sauces...I wonder about the addition of chicken broth to the recipe as it doesn't seem to add anything to the taste...Thank you for posting the recipe, I just don't find it interesting enough to keep :)

I made this as one of my chicken dishes during a OAMC session. It turned out very tasty and I especially liked that it was so very easy. Thanks for posting!
