{Artichoke Blue Cheese Chicken Fettuccine}



1 package (12 oz.) fettuccine
1 can (14 oz.) water packed artichoke hearts, rinsed, drained, & chopped
2 C. sliced fresh mushrooms
2 C. cooked cubed chicken (I took mine off of a rotisserie from Costco)
1-1/2 C. Alfredo sauce
1/4 C crumbled blue cheese

Cook fettuccine according to package directions. Meanwhile, in large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, saute artichokes & mushrooms until tender. Stir in cooked chicken & Alfredo sauce. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered for 4-5 min or until heated through stirring occasionally. Drain fettuccine; add to artichoke mixture; toss to coat. Sprinkle with blue cheese. 6 servings

(This is what I made my GB [Gorgeous Boyfriend] for dinner on Valentines day. We entertained two other couples and everyone really enjoyed this meal. I originally found this on the TOH [Taste of Home] website. It did not include the chicken or as many mushrooms. And it was SO simple--- easy prep, easy clean-up. The only thing that I think might make it better is a really good home-made Alfredo sauce recipe. If anyone knows of one I'd love to get my hands on it. )
