I am thinking of adding some diced cooked chicken under sauce and cheese to make it si liar to a Parmesan chicken.
Amanda @ The Kitcheneer says
This is absolutely perfect! I might substitute zucchini noodles in this to make it low carb!
brandi says
Did you make this with zuchinni noodles? If so, how did you do it and how did it turn out? I’m trying to go low carb also.
Stephanie Brubaker says
I have not tried this with zucchini noodles. If you make it that way, please let me know how it turns out! 🙂
brandi says
Made it tonight using zucchini noodles. Nope. It was like a delicious soup. I think it needs the starch from the noodles to soak up some of the goodness. None the less it’s a delicious lowish carb soup we’re eating!
Stephanie Brubaker says
Bummer it didn’t quite work, but glad it was still tasty! Thanks for reporting back 🙂
Leslie says
Did you try baking the zucchini noodles first! I make lasagne and enchiladas with zucchini and this helps a lot! I make zucchini boats and always poke drain holes in them. Sinking zucchini boats!
