I usually don't care for "white" sauce but this is a really tasty change of pace. I used left over bacon and had raw chicken, so I cooked the chicken (breast tenders) in 2 tbs of olive oil, added the mushrooms when the chicken was done and a minced clove of garlic. An earlier review suggested mushroom garlic soup so that is what I used. 1 pint of cream I changed to, 1 cup of heavy cream and 1 cup of milk, added one small zucchini that was sliced in 1 inch pieces, the olives, and 1 can of quartered unmarinated artichoke hearts drained and let this mixture simmer for about 15 minutes just to reduce the sauce. Then added 2 tbs of feta cheese and 2 tbs of parmesan cheese. I thought the full amount of feta with the bacon would make the dish to salty and more can be added at the table if someone wants more cheese, we didn't add any additional. Mixed the sauce with 16 oz penne pasta (cooked and drained). It does make a lot so unless you have an extra large skillet a deeper pan maybe needed.
