Chicken Fettiuccini Alfredo

Takes about 30-45 minutes... not bad for a whole meal!

Ingredients:
1 jar of Alfredo sauce
5 chicken strips
1 head of broccoli
1/2 a tomato or 6-7 cherry tomatoes
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning
Olive oil

Directions:

1. Pour olive oil in a skillet and cook your chicken until the inside is no longer pink and it's easy to shred with a fork.

2. Shred the chicken into small pieces and add broccoli and tomatoes. Add more olive oil if necessary, cook until vegetables are soft. About 3-5 minutes.

3. Pour in Alfredo sauce and add seasoning. Stir while skillet is hot for about a minute, mixing everything together

4. Boil water and add fettuccine noodles- following directions on the box. Serve with sauce.

You can make it healthier by adding more vegetables and/or finding an Alfredo sauce that isn't loaded in calories. The Alfredo sauce is the LEAST healthy thing in the pasta.

Something you can also add is bacon. I know that prevents it from being as healthy, but it does add to the flavor!
