Chicken Mushroom Pasta Alfredo
Are you in to healthy chicken pasta recipes? How about with mushroom alfredo? Everything in this recipe is homemade from scratch, including the white sauce, which is SO creamy and delish. It's one of my favorite pasta recipes. This dish is full of nutrients like vitamin C, Iron, and Potassium. And it's filling—not a great option for weight-watching. But hey, everyone has their cheat days!
