  • This super easy throw-together meal is perfect for a weeknight dinner. This is for those days when you’re craving comfort food but don’t have the time or energy to put much effort into cooking. To save you time, effort and dirty dishes, use rotisserie chicken, packaged real bacon bits, and Green Giant™ Steamers Broccoli to steam the broccoli right in the bag. Then all you have to do is combine these ingredients with the sauce and pasta, pour it into a casserole dish and top with panko breadcrumbs, bake and then EAT! The result is a cheesy noodle dish that’s enough to feed a family or provide you with leftover comfort food for the next day. Enjoy!
