Directions:Cook pasta al dente according to package directions BUT add carrots during the last 4 minutes and add broccoli during the last one minute. Drain pasta and vegetables.
While pasta is cooking, heat butter/oil in large skillet and sauté onion and garlic until softened, stirring often. Add flour and brown slightly. Stir together soups, broth, milk, salt and pepper. Add to pan along with chicken and cheese. (Add more liquid if it is too thick. It needs to be like a medium sauce.) Stir well and add pasta and vegetables.
