My foodie pal, Brandi from Aunt Bee’s Recipes, posted this recipe for a recipe share we were both involved in for Mother’s Day a few years back. I was intrigued by the ingredients. As I said, I love pasta, but I’m not always a big fan of heavy cream sauces like Alfredo. She assured me that I would love this recipe, and she was right! It’s not a thick heavy cream sauce, like a traditional Alfredo sauce. Am I the only person on earth who isn’t a fan of Alfredo? Quite possibly. Her recipe is named Southwestern Chicken Linguine Alfredo, but I left the “Alfredo” part off in my title.

I am so happy to have found this recipe, and so is my family. For a meatless option, it’s perfectly tasty to leave the chicken out, so keep that in mind, too. We like to have it that way during Lent. Of course, if you LOVE chicken, you will want to take a peek at this 20+ Family Favorite Chicken Recipes round-up that I have available. It’s literally a one-stop recipe stop for all sorts of chicken recipes and ways to use leftover chicken.
