I have food allergies so I use the noodles and add a little butter and a little ricotta cheese (for the cream). Then sprinkle with Aziago cheese on top. Don't know the calories but it tastes good and can't be too bad.

This recipe is suppose to serve 6 but only has 8 oz of pasta and two chicken breast. Make sure to double or even triple the nutritional information for a decent, filling serving.
