Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups elbow macaroni
½ cup diced carrots
⅓ cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon butter
2 cups chopped cooked chicken

1 cup Caesar salad dressing
½ cup chopped sweet bell peppers
⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  • Bake carrot mixture in the preheated oven until slightly tender, about 10 minutes.
  • Mix macaroni, chicken, 3/4 cup mozzarella cheese, Caesar dressing, sweet bell peppers, and Parmesan cheese into carrot mixture; top with remaining mozzarella cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until casserole is heated through and cheese is melted, about 25 minutes.
