Low Fat Chicken Divan
This is pretty much the same as the Overnight Chicken Divan recipe but made with low fat ingredients.

Cook macaroni and drain. Stir in chopped ham. Whisk […]

We like carrots and potatoes, so I’ll use 3 to 4 large carrots, and 4 or more potatoes. Using College Inn chicken broth makes a big difference … the sauce comes out velvety smooth. […]
