LOL - it's 5:20 here and I have a show tonight...wish me luck!!
 
The creamy One Pot Pasta is soooo good and I'm having some right now! I can't believe I waited so long to try it!!
 
I finally made this tonight for supper. I cut up chicken breast first, and seared it off in some of the tomato oil first, then removed them from the pan. I added them back in at the very end, along with some parsley.

Also- I am not a big fan of sundried tomatoes, but I liked them in the oil, and in this dish. I probably only used 1/3 of the jar, though since I don't like them too well. I added some olive oil back into the jar to fill it back up, so I will have more flavored oil for next time. To show how to save $$, even at my shows I may only use that amount in the dish....

Actually, everyone in my family liked it! DH said it would be better without "all that veggie crap" but I told him that was my way of getting him to accidentally eat some vegetables and get some vitamins!! lol
 
Ok-after reading thru this whole thread, I am going to have to try this recipe.....it just sounds too good!
 
gonna try this tonight! We are off to a movie this afternoon, so I am prepping all of it ahead of time! Can't wait to try it!

Were you that tired...or was it that bad for an adult?

Evan really wants to go see that one, too!
 
My Mom, DS and I went to see Indiana Jones and DH and DD went to see Kung Fu Panda.....Indy was good, but just a lillte too long and drawn out. DH says KFP was funny!

It's just my M.O.
Put me in a dark room for 2 hours and I will fall asleep. There have been VERY few movies I've stayed awake through - and for those ones I generally had chocolate milk or tea beforehand to gimme a little zing.
 
OK-I cooked this tonight and I am a bit underwhelmed.....:(

I liked it but it is missing something...the kids liked it, DH and I thought adding chicken is the way to go....
I think next time I will make it using the Greek Rub and add Feta instead of Parmesan
 
I am a new consultant, since May, and was thinking of doing this recipe. It was great to read all your success stories. Unfortunately I only have the 8" Executive saute pan that comes with the consultant kit. May have to wait until Sept. when my 90 days are up when I can order an additional piece of cookware. I already spent my PC money!!!
 
If your recruiter or Director are near you, they would probably be willing to lend you cookware so you can do this for a show.
 
Actually my recruiter works right next to me in my office and she does not have one either and our Director lives about 1 1/2 hours away. I have about 5 shows coming up in July and two should be very big ones so I may just buy one. I really need another peice for all the shows I am doing, which is good!! :)
 
I suggest getting the Exec. 12" skillet, then. You can use it for the pasta and for skillet cakes or the Asian Noodle Skillet, too.
