Yes, I'm talking about food again!

I'm surprised too, in case you were wondering. I realized why. I rarely cook because I am normally home for supper only one to two times most weeks. I tend to see my mom during supper one of those days which then leaves just one day home for a meal. That's most in the summer months. I even used to sometimes do windows until five pm or later and my husband likes to eat earlier so he puts something together Since I'm now home on disability for a few months I may end up cooking a bit more than normal. Even if I don't share about my food I do tend to take pictures just in case. I wanted to make something with some chicken I froze some months ago and I found some cut broccoli in the freezer too. I cleaned out a portion of my freezer and threw out old food. I didn't want to have to throw this away so looked for a recipe online. I had to throw out our rice and we have a lot of pasta so wanted something including that as well. I searched out cheesy pasta with chicken and broccoli and thought I found something but it was using stuffing and no pasta. I decided to make my own recipe rather than take time looking since it was already going on six o'clock. My husband was working and I had a late lunch so I plowed ahead. I used rottini noodles, cooked, 1 can of cream of chicken soup, some sour cream, 8oz of broccoli cuts, some leftover frozen chicken and cheese. I was going to use Velveeta but I'm sure what we have is outdated so I used thin sliced Colby Jack store brand cheese, a couple slices of baby Swiss, and the rest of my shredded Mexican flavored cheese. I baked it at 375 for about half an hour. I actually cooked the chicken first to help it thaw and warm it up so I could cut it into smaller pieces. Then once the noodles were cooked I put that into my pan with some of the cheese and began baking it to melt the cheese. I keep adding more cheese and once it was melted added the soup, sour cream and the rest of the ingredients.
