Chicken Supreme Pasta Bake

As usual, Jeremy and I disagreed on our dinner tonight.  I liked it and he only sort of liked it.  But we all know know that I have a more sophisticated pallet... ;)

Anyway, I thought this was a yummy new addition to my casserole repertoire (Mandy, you can feel free to stick with the "Bake" terminology). :)  Oh, and I left the chicken out.
