I got this recipe from one of those little Betty Crocker cookbooklets you buy at the grocery check out. I lightened it up a bit by substituting low fat products. It's really good and a great way to get veggies in your kids...and hubby! Colette

that looks really good. I don't have the nugget pasta, I have bowtie pasta so I am going to try that instead and add cream of muchroom soup since I don't have gravy.
