1 box farfalle pasta, cooked and drained
1 jar alfredo sauce, add to pasta and warm over medium heat for about 3 minutes
For the picky child eaters, stop there and load up their plates with just that. :) Otherwise your picky seven year old son will start bawling and make himself throw up.
In a frying pan with about 1 Tbs. margarine, saute all of the leftover vegetables in your fridge from the previous week with some frozen pre-cooked chicken. We like to saute together:
1/2 onion, diced
handful mushrooms, sliced
1/2 tomato, diced
pre-cooked frozen chicken breasts, diced
I served with asparagus with creamy herb dressing, and garlic toast for a super quick meal.
Do they really sell Alfredo sauce in a jar. Alfredo should just be butter and parmesan added to the cooked pasta together with a tiny drop of the water the pasta was cooked in. I am amazed they sell this 'sauce' in a jar. Wow.
ReplyDeleteBut what a great example of a quick healthy meal, so many people claim not to have time to cook. As this shows though, it is possible to eat well with little preperation.
