Dinner Tonight: Alfredo Pasta w/ Chicken Breasts
To start this morning off I toasted a Healthy Life Whole Grain English Muffin and topped with some Smucker's Sugarless Blackberry Jam. Outside this morning it was 17 degrees but the good about today is we are above freezing! 34 degrees and Sunny! After Breakfast I headed out to the Grocery Stores! I was having the dreaded Cabin Fever and I couldn't wait to get out! I first stopped at Meijer for all my items and then on to Kroger for Mom. They say 50 degrees on Sunday but rain. I'm fine with that, just slow down the snow! So for Dinner tonight Alfredo Pasta w/ Chicken Breasts.
l I’m having the Bear Creek Alfredo Pasta Mix tonight for Dinner. Love all the Bear Creek Products I’ve tried so far. Comes packaged with the Pasta and Sauce Mix. I'll add the Chicken.
To prepare it; I added 4 cups of water to a 2 1/2 quart saucepan and brought to a rolling boil. Whisked
in the Pasta and Sauce Mix. Brought it back up to a rolling boil. then reduced the heat to a medium boil. Cooked for 15 minutes, stirring often. Removed it from the heat and let it sit for 8 minutes. The sauce thickened up perfectly. I like my sauces on the thick side and this one turned out great.The Pasta was good size with good taste and as I said the Alfredo Sauce was spot on! A great dish from Bear Creek to have in the Pantry.
For the Chicken I used Perdue Perfect Portions Boneless and Skinless Chicken Breasts – Italian
Style. I love using these, just keep them in the freezer until needed. To prepare them; Lightly coat a skillet with Pam Cooking Spray. Heat the pan over medium-high heat, add breasts and brown 1 minute per side. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover and cook 10 minutes, to 170ºF internal temperature, turning frequently. Fried and done! These also bake up perfectly also.
To serve everything I took a bowl and made a bed of the Alfredo Pasta, sliced up 1 of the Chicken Breasts and added them to the top of the Pasta. And topped everything off with some Kraft Reduced Fat Grated Parmesan Cheese. Excellent dish! Past and Chicken is a natural. I think I may be having leftovers for Dinner tomorrow night! Also had a Diet Dr. Pepper to drink. For Dessert later a bowl of Smart Pop – Pop Corn.
