SHORTCUT
Substitute 1 pkg. (6 oz.) OSCAR MAYER Grilled or Italian Style Chicken Breast Strips for the cooked fresh chicken strips. Cook pasta and broccoli as directed. Drain; return to saucepan. Add chicken, VELVEETA, soup and milk; continue as directed.
PERFECT PASTA
For perfect pasta that’s cooked just right, test it often near the end of the cooking time suggested on the package. The perfect pasta is done when it’s tender, but still slightly firm as you bite into it. To keep the pasta from cooking any further, immediately drain it in a colander.
