Pros: Creamy and cheesy. Made with real cheddar cheese. Quick and simple to prepare. I’d make it again if I was feeling slightly more energetic than microwaveable meal lazy. Pasta was cooked just right. Better when you add your own broccoli. Thank goodness Betty Crocker didn’t call it Xtreme Chicken Helper.
Cons: What makes it “Ulitmate” is kind of lame; it’s just a creamy cheddar cheese sauce packet. Cheese sauce packet doesn’t seems to make it creamier than non-Ultimate Chicken Helper. Size of broccoli pieces look like someone sneezed on a cutting board that was just used to chop broccoli and all the leftover bits flew onto this dish.

What did you use for chicken? Did you actually fry something up or just open a can?
I thawed, chopped, and fried some frozen chicken thighs. Maybe that was ultimate enough for this.
