In the carefree summertime it's good to have a few no pressure, no fussing meals to fall back on.
This simple meal takes less then 20 minutes to prepare and can be served up with a simple green salad and some bread. Here's my carefree pasta meal.
Cook pasta noodles of your choice to al dente and drain. Leave in pot.
Add a jar of Alfredo Sauce to the noodles and some leftover chicken.
I added leftover barbecued chicken cut up into bite size pieces.
Fresh chopped tomatoes and chopped green onion add to the visual appeal.
Cook all ingredients together until sufficiently heated through.
Season to taste and enjoy!
that actually sounds great I will do things like this on occasion as well
ReplyDeleteThat's my kind of of meal...and I like the idea of tossing in some frozen spinach.
ReplyDeletePerfect. I like the addition of spinach....great colour and what a good combination with the alfredo sauce..yum! You are right...carefree and hits the spot!
ReplyDeleteThat looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteEllen this sound way to good to admit to using leftovers. . .you could have called it something fancier. . .it is my kind of meal.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoy a quick "go to" meal. This sounds wonderful...lots of possibilities here.
ReplyDeleteI love your site. I did this
ReplyDeleteexact thing except I added yellow
beans. I remember having yellow
beans in creme sauce over potatoes
as a child. I thought alfredo sauce
and for starch noodles. I liked
it and used some of my yellow
beans.
This looks so good. We all have leftovers and it is good to use them up creatively so no one would even know they are leftovers. Thanks for submitting this. Kathy
