Notes

A few shortcuts to make this recipe even easier
  1. We used frozen chicken breasts, that we thawed and cooked. You could easily use canned chicken or a rotisserie chicken. 
  2. Pre shredded cheese is so convenient, and we use it often. 
  3. Pre cooked bacon that needs some reheating is the way to go. 
  4. Store bought Alfredo sauce.
