Make sure to REPIN this recipe ๐Ÿ™‚

I wanted to make another one pan meal – partially because I am lazy — and the other part….. hmmm maybe because I am lazy ๐Ÿ˜‰

What I love so much about this dish – is that it is very easy to make – and it is picky eater approved – my husband is one of the pickiest eaters I know – and he loved this dish – enough to ask me make it again and again

When I make this dish again I am going to be adding some more veggies – like 1/2 red and green pepper — if my family is going to eat a dish I try and up the amount of veggies until they notice

I use egg noddles for this dish – I think it works really well – but if you want it to be healthier you can use whole grain pasta or if you want the dish to be gluten free simply use gluten free pasta – use the same measurements as the egg noddles

This dish is a bit spicy; however, the creaminess from the cream cheese really helps

This is a baked casserole dish – I know this is something that could be made in a crock pot but I am not sure about the time

If you want this dish be a little healthier you can use ground turkey

The dish is enough for a LARGE family – 8 – 10 hungry people. Also the dish reheats very well the next day — it is a little like lasagna it tastes better the next day
