Chicken Pasta Tomato Casserole

Had cooked up some chicken breasts in the crockpot on Thursday, in some diced tomatoes. Tossed in a few dried herbs and left it.

So, I shredded up the leftover chicken tonight in the remainder tomato "sauce".
I boiled up some elbows.
I chopped up an onion and sauteed that in a small can of fire roasted tomatoes.
Added some tomato paste and garlic powder.
Cooked that up for a while...
Mixed the shredded chicken in with the "new" tomato & onion mixture.
Chopped up an 8oz block of sharp cheddar.

Then, I tossed the chicken mixture and the cheese with the elbows.
Covered it with a layer of shredded mozzarella.
Cooked it in the oven for 30 minutes at 350F degrees, covered in aluminum foil.
Uncovered it and then cooked another 10 minutes.

Added a salad and some garlic break and it was awesome!
