By Louise E., Rachel T. and Mary K. from Van Buren Middle School, Kettering/Ohio.
Description
This recipe is created with a "twist" for 2 reasons: One, this recipe saves on fat calories by combining fat free half and half cream with canned cream of chicken soup. Second, this recipe uses whole grain rotini noodles instead of the traditional fettucine noodles.
