Pasta-Chicken-Broccoli Bake

We loved this recipe! I made it without the pecans. Next time, I won't bake it for the full 40 minutes, and will add water chestnuts for a bit of crunch.

It was pretty good! Reduced butter to 1/4 c, half and half to a cup then used 1cup 2% milk for rest of half and half and wine. Would have used wine except I was out. I was trying to save some fat and calories! My husband loved and wants me to make again! I didn't love but would make again. It would be fine to use penne too.

A real hit with our couples group. I stirred the mixture several times to keep the tortelini cooking in the sauce. I added the crackers, nut and cheese at the end. Very colorful and tasty. Orange cranberry relish and a side salad finished the meal.
