Expert Tips

Eat Better America Test Kitchens replaced ingredients with great-tasting alternatives to create better-for-you recipes that are just as yummy as the originals.

Multigrain or whole-grain pasta can be substituted for the regular pasta. Cook as directed on box, adding broccoli during last 4 minutes of cooking time.

Angel hair pasta cooks very quickly, so time it so that it is ready just before serving.

Honestly, it turned out well enough but the sauce seems to be a lot runnier than I had expected. If I had to remake this recipes I would probably use a whole container of cream cheese and a half cup of skim milk.

I love this recipe. I have changed it up a little by adding garlic and onion when I saute the mushrooms, to give it more flavor. Also I have made it using precooked chicken breasts and just added them to the sauce. This saved the step of baking in the oven.

This pasta was great. I loved everything accept the mushrooms. I'm not a mushroom lover. It is great with some black pepper on top.
