I agree with Rachel Dobbs, it bugs me that people give a recipe a low rating when they didn't even cook the recipe!!!! I cooked this dish exactly as written. Did I add some fresh chopped garlic? Yes....Did I add some oregano and Basil? Yes.....BUT, I did not change the recipe and it was a darn good dish!!! What also bugs me is, people claim to be cooks and have a lot of experience in it but, thinks its strange and don't understand why you cook pasta in Chicken Broth??????? I have worked in some of the top restaurants and that is one of the many secrets that give dishes such awesome flavor!!!! Would you really want a pasta boiled in salted water or pasta boiled in Chicken Broth water???? I know which one I would like!!! And yes, I baked the Chicken as was instructed and that was the juiciest and tender Chicken!! Yes, sauteing it up with some olive oil and garlic would have been quicker and tasty BUT, it wouldn't have been near as tender and juicy as baking it! Thank you very much Lisa for this recipe!

Love this dish!! I used Italian sausage instead of hamburger and I didn't add any salt at all, and I didn't use any Cheddar cheese, I just used Mozzarella and Parmesan. Other than that, I followed the recipe and I will make again.

We have been making this same exact casserole for Christmas breakfast for 17 years now and the whole family loves it!!! It is really good with bacon added and I serve syrup on the side because it is used a lot! You must put it together the night before for it to turn out properly when baked and make sure you use enough bread! That is the key.......
