Chicken Broccoli Alfredo
This family friendly dinner is super delicious and creamy. It tastes best when served immediately after cooking so that you can enjoy the creamy sauce, but you can also freeze any leftovers for a rainy day.
Recipe Tester Feedback: "Oh my goodness! What a quick and scrumptious recipe! It was a hit with the whole family. The sauce is delicious and creamy without being too heavy. Leftovers, if you have any, could be frozen for quick and easy lunches."
