Cyclone Pasta

About 4 years ago Sean and I went to Outback Steakhouse and we ordered the Cyclone Pasta. We loved it so much we went back a couple month's later and it was taken off of the menu! We were so disappointed. I came across a copycat recipe this week and I was so excited! We tried it tonight and although it wasn't as good as I remembered, it was good. I would definitely alter the recipe next time! Here is the original, and and my notes!
 

* 1 cup sun-dried tomato
* 1 cup shiitake mushroom
* 1 onion (I used half an onion)
* 1 (16 ounce) jar alfredo sauce, I used THIS recipe

* 1 cup chicken breast, chopped and cooked
* 1 cup of shredded ham (I omitted this)
* 1 (16 ounce) box penne pasta, cooked (I used a 13.5 ounce box of whole wheat pasta)
* swiss cheese, Italian blend, as much as you like
* oregano
* thyme
* garlic

Directions:

Prep Time: 10 mins

Total Time: 10 mins

1. Mix all ingredients together in a lightly greased 13 x 9 inch baking dish.
2. Bake at 375F until golden.

I remember the original recipe having artichoke hearts in it. I added less noodles and more sauce and thought it turned out really great. I also added extra cheese. I baked it for 30 minutes and thought it was yummy! It was a little on the oily side but I never said it was going to be healthy :)
