My mom has made this for our family of seven as long as I can remember. It goes wonderfully with sweet potato muffins! Makes a huge batch! It would take us a week to eat all of it. Nowdays I usually make one pan, freeze one pan, and give one pan away! Preparation and cooking time does not include chicken.

Found this in the Greer Now magazine and it is a wonderful, easy to fix recipe. One that can be doubled if you have a large crowd to feed or want to freeze some up for future use. I used super market rotisserie chicken that was on sale. Great served with a nice garden salad.

  • Use a variety of mushrooms: Feel free to use a mix of different types of mushrooms, such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms, for a more complex flavor.
  • Add some vegetables: If you want to add some extra vegetables to your tetrazzini, try adding diced carrots, celery, or bell peppers to the sauce.
  • Use a variety of cheeses: You can use a variety of cheeses in your tetrazzini, such as Parmesan, Gruyère, and mozzarella, for a more complex flavor.
  • Don't overcook the pasta: Be sure to cook the pasta according to the package directions so that it's al dente. Overcooked pasta will make your tetrazzini mushy.

When you're ready to serve, reheat the tetrazzini in the oven or microwave until warmed through.
