Ingredients:
8 oz. penne or bowtie pasta1 recipe Guiltless Alfredo Sauce (1 16-oz. jar would work in a pinch)
2 chicken breasts, grilled and chopped (about 2 c. chopped chicken)
6 oz. (1/2 package) cooked bacon, chopped
1 14-oz. jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
1/2 c. chopped green onions (about 1 decent-sized bunch)
1 c. shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350.
Prepare pasta according to package directions. While pasta is cooking, prepare Guiltless Alfredo sauce. When pasta is done, drain and add to the sauce. Toss with chopped chicken, bacon, artichoke hearts, green onions, and 1/2 c. mozzarella. Season to taste.
Transfer mixture to an 8×8″ baking dish and sprinkle with remaining 1/2 c. mozzarella cheese. Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 350 for 20 minutes or until heated through and cheese is bubbly.
I had a 12 oz box of bowtie pasta and that worked. I also bought a jar of alfredo (four boys, remember, I have to be quick about cooking!). And I opened a 2 oz package of cooked bacon bits to save myself the time spent cooking bacon. I used a 9 x 13 pan. 8 x 8 just seemed a little small to squeeze it all in!
Husband rating: 4 stars
Boys say: thumbs up (except one who found the artichokes to be gross. Next time I'll chop them up smaller and he'll never know!)
