Chicken and Broccoli Stuffed Shells

I can't understand why anybody would not like these stuffed shells but they made the "I don't like it" list created by the one and only- Billy Head. Proves he really is a Billy Head.


12-15 Jumbo shells
1 (8 oz.) container cream cheese with chives & onions
2/3 cup milk
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
2 cups cooked chicken
1 (10 oz.) package chopped broccoli, thawed and drained
1 (4 oz.) jar diced pimiento
Black pepper

Cook shells for 18 minutes. Drain, rinse and drain again.

Sauce:
Stir cream cheese over medium heat. Slowly add milk. Stir in Parmesan cheese.

Filling:
Stir together 3/4 cup sauce, chicken, broccoli, pimiento and black pepper. Using small spoon, carefully stuff shells with 1/3 cup filling. Arrange shells in baking dish. Sprinkle with paprika. Pour rest of sauce over shells. Cover with foil and bake 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

** Just a little FYI- I have discovered that these are much better the second day. Don't get me wrong, they are good the first day too but really good the second day heated in the microwave.**
