One Dish Chicken Pasta Recipe -

Here’s a one dish chicken pasta recipe that will have your family asking for more!

I am constantly looking for new recipes, things I think my family will enjoy. Last week I tried a new recipe I found online. It appealed to me for several reasons. It was a one dish meal and it contained pasta and mushrooms, two of my favorites.

My oldest granddaughter was over and she went with me to the grocery store. We did our shopping together and then she helped me carry in the groceries and start the meal. Cooking with my grandchildren is so much fun and gives us a chance to talk and catch up on our week.

As you can see, it turned out well and Abby, my granddaughter, was happy to help me show it off!
