Creamed Chicken with Noodles

Well, it's the first of the year and everyone on the planet is trying to shed some pounds it seems. I am also trying to lose some weight so I thought it might be fun to post when I find a really good recipe. My mom and I collect cookbooks and over the years, I have collected quite a few Weight Watchers ones and we use them a lot. When i find a really good recipe, I will put it on here so maybe you guys can try it out too! :)

I have also decided that Girl Scouts should deliver their dang cookies in December for two reasons:
1.) you could give them as gifts so people would buy more boxes
2.) EVERYONE is dieting in January!

Anyways, our latest favorite recipe is:
