Chicken & Broccoli Alfredo Shells

2 1/2 cups (about 8oz) whole wheat medium shells 2 1/2 cups fresh broccoli, cut into small florets (just the head, no stem) 2 cups cooked, diced or shredded chicken 1 (16oz) jar Alfredo Sauce 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese (medium cheddar or mozzarella) 1/2 tsp Salt 1/4 tsp Pepper 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder Cook shells according to directions on package. Mine took about 10-11 minutes. Drain. Return shells to the pan & add alfredo sauce. Stir & set aside. Place broccoli florets & a little water in a container with a lid. Leave lid loose & microwave on high for 2-3 minutes depending on how crunchy you like your broccoli; just keep in mind that it will continue to cook in the oven. Cook & dice or shred chicken. I actually used leftover roast chicken & heated it up in the microwave for 1 1/2 minutes to have it hot like my other ingredients. Add the broccoli & chicken to the shells. Stir well. Empty contents into a greased 13x9" baking dish & top with shredded cheese. Bake at 350*F for 20-30 minutes or until bubbly & heated in the center.
