Interesting preparation but it is easy and just one pan. The 2% cheese tasted good but seemed to separate a little.

Was not bad, It wasn't too dry and it was pretty tastey. Made it with the 2% Velveeta and the 98% fat-free low sodium cxn broth. Would make again.

I made this with cooking the chicken and manicotti and without cooking it. I think it is good either way. It is strange stuffing raw chicken in those shells, but I think it turns out more tender. Also I used 1 can cream of chicken, 1 can cheddar soup and the velveeta. It does need the added sauce to cook up nice. I am actually making it tonight. Yummy.

My family of picky eaters loves this recipe. It was easy and didn't take too much time. The broccoli adds a great boost of flavor and texture to the creamy sauce.

The flavor was decent, but it took waay to much time to stuff the manicotti and they just looked so bare without anything else to bulk up the inside.

My most finicky childs favorite dish. It has become a new "no-fault" dish that the whole family enjoys and I can fall back on for a small or larger group as the recipe can easily be doubled.

This recipes was soooo good. My family loved it. It was fairly simple. We made homemade garlic bread to go with it. I dont really like frozen broccoli so I did substitute freah broccoli but it got over done since the recipe is for frozen, oops. I used a tad bit more than 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese since we are a cheese loving family. Even though i over did my broccoli, it was one of the best things i made from this site!!

Made a good quantity, good flavor. I'm not a huge fan of velveeta but it works in this recipe.
