Quick, easy, delicious!
We never omit the spinach, but I’ll add mushrooms if I have them, and u don’t usually have SDTs but it’s hard to go wrong with this recipe!

It tasted even MORE incredible the next day – which I didn’t think possible when I first ate it. We added the optional sundried tomatoes and spinach and it was stellar.

Sometimes I will dissect a Walmart rotisserie chicken and use it later in the recipe if I am feeling especially lazy. Thanks for this one!

1. Using rotini instead of penne. I find the noodles really hold onto the sauce that way. I don’t have to change the timing or anything!
2. Loading it up with spinach — I probably do four or five cups, and I chop it so that it’s easier to eat.
3. Adding the sun dried tomatoes. Seriously, it makes a HUGE difference and upgrades this dish from good to GREAT. I buy them halved and jarred in oil and use about 3-4 halves. The rest I freeze so I have them for months afterward.

I’ll probably keep making this until I die. It’s stupid easy and stupid delicious.

So I wouldn’t call it a quick meal with that in mind. But it did cook up fairly quickly once I had everything in place. I did add both optional ingredients – spinach and sundried tomatoes to try and make me feel a little better about the calorie content.

I just happened to have all the suggested ingredients on hand. I believe I added too much pasta so I had to increase the liquid. I had enough leftovers for several lunches. I added a splash of milk to make it creamy again. It’s definitely in my rotation of go to recipes.
