The kiddos had parties at school and brought home ALL the candy, which of course just made their day!

We played Valentine’s bingo, decorated hearts and made some peanut butter chocolate chip snack bars. Because, chocolate.

And last night, I went to see a live performance of a music trio with an amazing guitarist. Charlie Hunter plays this custom-made guitar that has extra strings and allows him to do bass and guitar. It’s pretty cool and we had a great time!

Today I’m back to it and I’m bringing you another quick and easy chicken dinner.

Yes, I’m so predictable and I’m so OK with that.

My healthy chicken Alfredo with broccoli is ready in about 20 minutes and you’ll go crazy for the luxurious sauce.

Trust me, you won’t know this is lightened up. It tastes so rich and creamy! (But there’s NO heavy cream needed!)

It’s easy enough for any weeknight dinner and it’s perfect for a comfort food meal that’ll give you all the cozy feels without permanently attaching itself to your thighs.

Recipe Notes:

• I use and recommend whole wheat fettuccine if you can find it, but you can substitute regular or even use spaghetti. Just pay attention to the cooking time on the box and adjust accordingly.
• To make this recipe so quickly, I cook the pasta and broccoli in one pot and have the chicken going in a skillet at the same time.
• You need to cut the broccoli into small florets so that it will cook along with the pasta.
• I use skim milk and reduced fat cream cheese, but you can substitute your milk of choice and full fat or fat free cream cheese, if you prefer.

Also, if you have any leftovers, they keep great.

Simply store, covered, in the refrigerator, for up to 4-5 days. Reheat in individual servings in the microwave. It makes a fantastic lunch another day!

If you are ready for comfort food but still want to stick to your healthy eating goals, this is the dinner for you!

Enjoy!

Kathryn
