Ingredients

0 servings

1 bagfrozen tortellini

1 bagfrozen veggie mix

I like broccoli, cauliflower and carrots, but you could really use any kind ya like

1can diced tomatoes

I used Italian style

1can chicken

You can use chicken breasts as well just make sure to dice and cook it first, then continue with the recipe as is

1 jarAlfredo sauce

I prefer Bertolli, but I also usually get what's on sale!)

Instructions

Step 1

If you're using chicken breasts instead of the canned chicken, throw a table spoon of olive oil in a 12 in deep skillet or Dutch oven. Dice 1 pound chicken breasts and brown in skillet over medium heat.

Step 2

If you're using canned chicken, spray pan with cooking spray, add frozen veggies and canned tomatoes. Cover and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until veggies are mostly done.

Step 3

Add the frozen tortellini and Alfredo sauce, continue to cook for another 3 to 5 mins, until the veggies are done and the tortellini is your desired tenderness.

Step 4

Top with some shredded mozzarella or parmesan cheese. Serve with garlic bread (because...garlic bread!!)
