3 c. sliced cooked chicken breast
3/4 c. crumbled cooked bacon

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Cook pasta according to package directions for al dente; drain.

Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, heat cream and cream cheese over medium heat until smooth, stirring occasionally.  Stir in 1 c. cheese, onion powder, garlic salt and pepper until blended.

In a bowl, combine chicken, bacon, ham and pasta.  Add sauce; toss to coat.  Transfer to a greased 9x13 baking dish.  Sprinkle with remaining cheese; top with bread crumbs.  Bake, uncovered, 18-22 minutes or until heated through.
