Chicken and Ham Skillet
"Quick alternative to a tuna casserole. Great tasting comfort food that makes everyone think you worked really hard. A great way to use up leftovers! I serve this with a crusty bread and green beans! Hope you enjoy it too."

Very tasty! I decided on 5 stars because of its ease and versatility. 8oz pasta was 3 cups uncooked penne for us. I used 1 c. cooked chicken-could have used a bit more. And I didn't have swiss-used 6 oz. shredded Italian mix cheese. Yummy and easy clean up! thanks for sharing this one! -
It seemd like too much meat, between the chicken and ham..just to much, nice flavor, but it needed something else, or just chicken. -
Fantastic 'random' supper search! Indeed comfort food. The changes I made was omitting the optional peas and mushrooms. Instead of cream of celery I used cream of broccoli and added frozen broccoli flowerets. Mmmmm..... Thanks Liisa N.!

<P>I'm a Mom of three boys: 19, 16, 13 (Josh, Jake and Jonah) and a 1 yr old golden retriever-Jethro. I work full-time as a Medicare compliance analyst for a non-profit health insurer. I love to cook - although I don't always have enough time to do as I'd like to do. I don't especially care to do the clean up though- but who does?? Food in general brings people together and makes people feel at ease. My boys love to help out in the kitchen-especially if I'm baking bread or baking sweet treats for them. If anyone were to ask them what I put in a recipe - first two ingredients they'd list would be olive oil and garlic -- (well not for the sweet stuff..at least)! I'm constantly browsing to see how I can alter/influence my family's eating - as well as trying to get it on the table quickly! My boys are all hockey players - so I spend a lot of time at the ice arena. When I have time of my own..I try to get on the golf course or read cookbooks.</P>
