Pasta Primavera a la Pollo Marsala

Our last few recipes have been pushing eccentricity, so we decided to make an alteration on a recipe we found in Runner's World Magazine: Pasta Primavera. 

I sauteed some garlic in a pan with half a pound of mushrooms. Then I added 1 1/2 cups of chicken stock and turned the stove on high to let some of the liquid evaporate. Then, I added 3 tablespoons of flour and brought it to a boil. After a few minutes, I added 1/2 a cup of Marsala wine. I added cherry tomatoes and sliced chicken pieces, and turned the stove down to let it reduce. 

In a separate pan I sauteed broccoli, artichokes, steamed peas, yellow peppers and red onions. 





It was all tossed in with whole grain Penne and sprinkled with Parmesan Cheese. 


 Dessert was fresh fruit salad- Strawberries, Honeydew Melon, and green grapes coated with Chobani Greek Yogurt.

Chili Pizza

Has Chili Pizza ever been done before? Well, now it has.

It looks messy, but it was easy with the leftovers from the cornbread chili bowls.

We added fresh cilantro to give it a fresh kick.
