P.S. - We are dog sitting a lab for the next week while our good friends are on vacation in the Bahamas. Yeah, I feel sorry for them......and in case you don't know we already have two BIG dogs - a black lab and a golden retriever. I'm scared. He is a great dog, but still somewhat a puppy (or wait, aren't labs ALWAYS puppies?), I have a feeling my week will be event filled - 3 dogs, small house, baby, husband.....ugh.

Now on to my Freezer Challenge Day #3 = mushrooms. I had a 1/2 bag of these frozen beauties in a Ziploc left over from something.....hmm.....can't quite remember what it was, but I know it wasn't from long ago. Tip: Always date your Ziploc bags! I knew exactly what I was going to make, as it is one of our FAVES.
Chicken Tetrazzini
1/2 lb. pasta (I used bow ties)
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 can cream of mushroom soup (98% FF, low sodium)
1/2 bag mushrooms
1 T. minced garlic
2 c. shredded cheddar cheese
1 c. broth
salt/pepper, to taste
Fill saucepan with water and place chicken breasts and garlic in water and bring to a boil. This will need to boil for at least 10 minutes or until chicken is cooked all the water through. In another pot, boil noodles till al dente. Meanwhile combine soup and 1/2 of the cheese in a large mixing bowl. When noodles are done, add to mixture. When chicken is done, shred with fork and combine to mixture. Keep the broth that the chicken was cooking in and put mushrooms in broth, just for a minute. This helps them to "unfrost" and soak in some of the good flavor. Add mushrooms and 1 c. of the broth to the mixing bowl. Stir all to combine and place in greased casserole dish. Cover with foil and bake at 375 degrees for 30 min. Take foil off, top with remaining cheese and bake an additional 10 minutes or until browned and bubbly.
