Chicken Penne al Fresco

One night last week I made this wonderful dinner, that everyone LOVED. I love using my Deep Covered Baker from Pampered Chef. The recipe is in the box with all my cookbooks in storage still. But I found the recipe on pinterest from here: http://www.bigbearswife.com/2011/01/grilled-chicken-penne-al-fresco-from.html?m=1
I like that it uses fresh ingredients. Our grill is also still in storage, so I sautéed the chicken with garlic in a hot skillet. Also, I do not use the wine that it calls for. We do not drink wine (or any alcohol for that matter) so I do not cook with it. I just used more chicken broth in its place. It is simple and easy and that's what I like! All the family liked it so that is always a plus.

First Things First...

Welcome to my blog! I must say, I don't really know what I am doing, but, I will figure it out.

About me:
I am a wife, a stepmom and I work full time. I love to cook and bake. This is just a place for me to share things I have made since I first started cooking, things I have learned from family and friends, and new adventures I like to try out along the way.

I hope you enjoy the recipes!
