Take an Italian taste tour with our manicotti stuffed with chicken, basil, spinach and cheese. It's big on flavor and can even fit into your healthy eating plan.
I saw Paula Deen make this recipe on her Food Network program. I was looking for a really creamy macaroni and cheese recipe, and this is it! I changed it a bit by omitting the eggs (the original recipe calls for three) and boiling the macaroni for six minutes instead of seven, so it doesn't get mushy while cooking in the Crockpot. I also shortened the cooking time from three to two and a half hours. Perfection!
Chiles, ancho peppers, cumin and hominy simmer into a broth so authentic, you'll think you're south of the border, or at least at your favorite Mexican joint.
I got this recipe from a nurse at work. We're always sharing easy and family-pleasing recipes. The sauce tastes like a creamy Alfredo sauce. This is great with noodles.
