Ingredients:
Serves 8

1 lb spiral pasta
1/2 10.5 oz. can condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 small yellow onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
6-8 slices bacon
1 1/2 C cooked chicken, cubed or shredded

Sauté onion until softened and translucent, 6-8 minutes.

Add minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute.

Season generously with salt and pepper.

Reduce heat to medium-low.

Add cream of mushroom soup and heavy cream.

Add chicken and stir to combine.

Add cooked pasta, mozzarella, and cheddar cheese, and stir until melted.
