Chicken Spaghetti
I have always heard of but never made Chicken Spaghetti or Chickenetti, if you smoosh the words together. It's funner to say. Plus that's what Anna Duggar calls it. I also love the Pioneer Woman (who doesn't? I dare you to say out loud that you don't) who has a recipe for it. I took into account my family's tastes and adapted the two recipes into one and this is what I ended up with. My kids gave it a thumbs up so that's that.

Reuben Casserole {Totally Tasty Tuesdays}
A few weeks ago, I was able to go to the Taste of Home Cooking School. It was a blast! If you ever get the chance, go to one. The instructor made some pretty great looking dishes. This is one of them. I love a Reuben Sandwich. I love everything about it. Sauerkraut, corned beef or pastrami, cheese, rye bread...oh yes. This is all those put into a casserole with noodles. I forgot the bread crumbs on this, but it was still mighty tasty. I love casseroles. So easy and so comforting. The … [Read more...]
Bow-Ties with Ham
Who doesn't love pasta? This is a tasty way to eat it with ham and asparagus. I will try it with broccoli instead next time, just for a change. It is pretty good and if you can't find Harvati cheese, you can use mozzarella cheese instead. This comes together so fast and is great for a quick dinner. 3 c. uncooked bow-tie pasta (farfalle)1 (16 oz.) jar Alfredo pasta sauce10 medium asparagus spears, cut into 1 inch pieces1/2 c. sun-dried tomatoes in oil and herbs, drained & chopped1 c. … [Read more...]
