CHICKEN STUFF-A-RONI WITH CHEESE SAUCE

Servings: 1
Ingredients:

----------------------------------FILLING----------------------------------
1 1/2 c  Finely chopped cooked
- chicken or turkey
1/2 c  Finely chopped onion
1/4 c  Minced parsley (optional)
1/4 ts Ground thyme
1/4 ts Garlic salt
1/2 c  Finely chopped celery
1 c  Grated cheddar cheese, med.
1/4 c  Dry white wine - or gravy
Salt and pepper to taste

———————————–SAUCE———————————–
1/2 c Butter
1/2 c Flour
3 c Chicken broth - I use
- homemade gravy instead
1 c Milk
2 c Grated Cheddar Cheese
1/4 ts Tobasco
Salt and pepper to taste

In bowl, combine filling ingredients; salt and pepper to taste

In Saucepan, melt butter, add flour. Stir in broth and milk; cook until
thickened, stirring frequently. Add remaining ingredients.

Fill Stuff-a-roni.

Cover bottom of 2 quart baking dish with 1 cup cheese sauce. Arrange
filled stuff-a-roni in single layer in baking dish. Cover with remaining
sauce.

Cover dish with foil and bake at 375-degrees F., for one hour; or cover
dish with waxed paper and microwave 30 minutes turning once.

Note: I usually make this dish after Thanksgiving. I freeze left over
turkey and gravy, and then later, when turkey seems like a treat again, I
make the Stuff-a-roni. I do not use the wine; in it’s place I use turkey
gravy, and when it calls for broth, I also use a fair portion of turkey
gravy.
