Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/2 tsp olive oil
1 pound skinless boneless chicken breast -- ground
1/2 cup onions -- chopped
15 ounces tomato sauce
1/2 cup nonfat Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon basil
14 ounces macaroni and cheese dinner
1 tbsp reduced fat margarine -- melted
2 tbsps unbleached flour
1 1/2 cup skim milk
2 whole egg whites -- slightly beaten
Preheat oven to 350. Prepare a 2-quart casserole dish with cooking spray;
set aside. In a skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add chicken and onions.
Cook until chicken is no longer pink and onions are tender. Stir in tomato
sauce, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, and basil. Simmer 10 minutes. Prepare
macaroni and cheese dinner according to package directions (I use skim milk
and fat-free spread). Spread chicken mixture onto bottom of prepared pan.
Top with macaroni dinner. Meanwhile melt margarine in saucepan on low heat.
Blend in flour. Gradually add milk; cook, stirring constantly, on low heat
until thickened. Stir small amount of hot mixture into egg whites; return
to hot mixture. Pour over dinner; sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese.
Bake for 50 minutes or until golden brown.
