One Pot Chicken Tomato Basil Alfredo -a quick and super easy meal that uses everyday ingredients but tastes amazing.

Happy belated 4th of July!!  Did everyone have a good time??  Tell me how did you guys celebrate??  We kept it pretty low key here.

The kids played outside most of the day on their water slide and new swing set–then headed into to town to watch the fireworks in the evening.

We finally found a used swing set that we liked, was big enough for the kids to play on and didn’t cost a small fortune.  (I can’t believe the price tags they have on those play sets!!)  It was quite the job putting the swing set back together because the previous owners had taken it apart and didn’t have any instructions on putting it back together.

But we figured it out and after a weekend and several nights after work my husband and I were able to get the job done.

One Pot Chicken Tomato Basil Alfredo -a quick and super easy meal that uses everyday ingredients but tastes amazing.

I haven’t done a one pot meal in a little while so I thought I would throw one your way.  I love this dish for its simplicity.  Simple everyday ingredients, easy prep and quick cooking time.  That’s a winning one pot meal in my books!

It also has to taste great and pass the family inspection.  Well, you can probably guess that it did since I am posting it here on the blog.  I’m sure you’re thinking what pasta dish wouldn’t pass any kiddos inspection, but I have two little girls that can be on the pickier side, especially if I am trying out a new dish.  And yes even with pasta!

  1. Swing sets are so expensive! The hubs built ours but it was still a fortune. Looks like you had a wonderful 4th! Love this pasta dish. GORGEOUS photos!

    • I know it’s just ridiculous how much they charge for swing sets and even more ridiculous how much they charge just for wood! Thank you Julie, means a lot!!
