Ingredients

• 1-2 cans tuna, drained or 3 cups shredded chicken or turkey breast
• 3 Tablespoons olive oil
• ½ large white onion diced
• 3-4 mini Bella mushrooms, sliced
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 4 oz cream cheese
• ½ cup sour cream
• 1 10.5 oz can mushroom soup
• ¾ cup milk
• 8 oz any pasta (your preference)

• 1 cup french fried onions

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees then slice the mushrooms and dice the onions. Lightly grease your baking dish with cooking spray.

Once the oil is heated, add the onions and mushrooms and saute until the onions are translucent. After the onions are done, add your pasta to the water and cook until al dente (7 minutes or so).
