Cheesy Chicken Jumbo

2 (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
5 c. chicken, cooked and chopped
3 c. shredded cheddar cheese
2/3 c. finely chopped celery
1/2 c. finely chopped onion (opt.)
2 tsp. seasoned salt
1 tsp. pepper
35 jumbo macaroni shells
2 (10 3/4 oz.) cans cream of chicken soup
2 c. chicken broth

Cook macaroni shells and drain. Combine chicken, cheddar cheese, celery, onion and seasonings. Now add softened cream cheese and mix well. Stuff each shell with chicken mixture and put into a 28 x 35-inch baking dish. Heat and mix broth with soup, making a gravy. Pour over shells and top with more cheese. Bake 30 to 40 minutes at 350.

*I left out the onion
*If you should choose to make this yourself, just a note...I don't have that big of a dish, but I think one recipe would probably give you two good-sized 8x12's. Hope you like it!
