I truly enjoy cooking for my little family.  I love hearing them comment about my cooking while they eat.  I delight in the sounds of enjoyment they make even more.  I know they love my cooking and so I just assume other people will too. Whether that’s the case or not, I just share LOL!  Point is, I like sharing it with who ever cares to listen or in my case, watch.  I’m somewhat of a Snapchat freak and am constantly sharing what I cook.  I love when you guys screen shoot my food and I get a little high when you ask me for the recipe.

Disclaimer:  Not really a Mexican Dish

Today, I will share one that was highly requested by some of my Snapchat family.  It’s a chicken bacon penne Alfredo.  I used Jalapeños for the added kick to my palette.

Ingredients

2 Chicken breasts
1/2 Onion
1 Garlic Clove
1 lb of Penne Pasta
1 jar of Alfredo Sauce
1/2 cup of Ranch Dressing
6-8 Bacon Slices
8 oz of Shredded Mozzarella
1 Small can of sliced Jalapeño (optional)

 

Instructions

  1.  Cook chicken in a pot of water with 1/2 onion, 1 garlic clove and salt to taste.
  2.  Cook pasta in water.
  3.  Cook bacon and chop it up after it has cooled down.
  4. In a bowl, mix together chicken, pasta, alfredo sauce, and ranch dressing.
  5. Place in a pan.
  6. Sprinkle bacon and cheese on top.
  7. Add jalapeño slices on top as desired. (Can be also added after it’s cooked.)
  8. Bake at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes.

A comer se a dicho!
