Certainly one of my personal favorite recipes is my aunt's Chicken Stuffed Shells. Regrettably, it is not what you might think about a healthy recipe -- pasta shells full of a combination of chicken, stovetop stuffing, and mayonnaise, all drenched inside a sauce comprised of mostly butter and high cream. Within my quest to create a healthier version, I made use of stove-top stuffing without any added butter, added broccoli towards the filling, used reduced fat miracle whip, and chosen wheat grains lasagna noodles instead of regular jumbo shells. This recipe was lots of work but switched out to become a scrumptious slimmed lower form of my mom's stuffed shells. You might get this to in advance and freeze!
