I found this recipe on the WW web site; made it tonight. It is very worthwhile. I used white pasta instead of whole wheat simply because I can never find whole wheat pasta in "shapes" any more. Here is the link: Chicken Sausage, Mushroom and Pasta Casserole |

Thanks for the review. I love casseroles so I think this one will go on my menu next week.  |

I am new here. How do you know the serving size? The recipe says it is 10 points.
Thanks. |

SisterJourney: it says serves 8.
Zazzles: I find all sorts of shapes of 100% whole wheat pasta easily. I live in a relatively major metropolitan area; do you live perhaps out in the boonies? What major supermarkets are near you?

I live smack in the middle of Silicon Valley with access to the entire San Francisco Bay Area. Sadly, grocery stores are Safeway, Lucky, and a few boutique upscale markets. They carry what sells a lot—product movement and profit over customer satisfaction. |

zazzles, Isn't Safeway relatively major? Do they carry at least Barilla pasta? Barilla makes 54% whole grain pasta, but they also make 100% whole grain (possibly only whole wheat) pasta.

Lucky is a major chains here. Neither carry extensive selections of Whole Grain/Wheat pastas. I'm not much into whole wheat pasta anyway; I can tolerate whole grain. But since pasta in general causes a huge spike in my blood sugar I seldom indulge anyway. |

zazzles, Mike, I just read one of your posts about your adventures with an Instant Pot. I bought one during the summer (Amazon's day of amazing sales, whatever its name is) for almost 1/2 the retail cost. However, I really don't know how to use it. I know people who RAVE about theirs (which is why I bought one in the first place)...
Can you direct me somewhere that will really teach me how to use it? (It's easy to use a crock pot / slow cooker; put the stuff in, put the lid on, set the timer...) Thanks for any help you can give me.
