CREAMY CAJUN CHICKEN SPAGHETTI
This is a (slightly) healthier version of one of my favorite comfort foods, which I adapted from my sister-in-law. You can always add more veggies to make this dish healthier...They'll be smothered with cheese so you won't even notice they're there, which is great for the kids! I recommend saving unused vegetable parts for a homemade stock. And, for easy clean up, use a plastic Crockpot liner.

HEALTHIER CREAMY CAJUN CHICKEN AND PASTA
I love creamy cajun pasta! But using the heavy cream or the half and half is just not the healthiest thing. So, I thought that I would try using condensed milk and it worked wonderfully! With the cajun flavor, you would never guess that it wasn't made with heavy cream.

I came up with this recipe in attempt to please my husband who is not keen on fake meats. We all loved this dish and I don't believe he realized that the strips were not real chicken breast. The 6 year old licked his plate - literally. So if you happened to grab a bag and are wondering what on earth to do with it.... give this recipe a try. I know you will love it!
