1/4 cup milk

Spray 13 x 9 inch baking dish with cooking spray. I boil my chicken in salted water while the Manicotti is cooking.   Cook Manicotti  according to package directions for 6-8 minutes, leaving it a bit undercooked. (it will cook further in the oven)  Drain noodles and set aside to cool.  Dice or shred chicken.  In a medium bowl, stir together the remaining ingredients until thoroughly combined.  Stir in chicken.  Stuff shells with a teaspoon at a time of the chicken mixture.  Place in baking dish and cover with your choice of alfredo sauce or marinara sauce.  Bake for 25 – 30 minutes or until heated through.
