I liked the way the vegetables turned out - cooking them in the broth was a new technique (14 oz can). I was told that the red pepper didn't "go." However, I used mostly garden-grown yellow pepper strips which were quite bitter (more like a green pepper). I might keep the red pepper but not substitute another type. I also received comments that there wasn't enough "sauce." A full-blown alfredo sauce would probably have been better. I thought this was a little bland and could have benefitted from additional herbs or spices. The chicken was especially bland. (I do use unsalted butter for cooking.)

This was easy to make and everyone enjoyed it. I used a 12 ounce bag of bow tie pasta and we had plenty of pasta in the dish with that amount. The only thing I did different in the directions and that was to add step 7 before number 4. This way it was easier to stir and melt the cream cheese. I was not sure if LuvsCookin intended the cream cheese package to be the 3 oz or 8 oz size but I used the 8 oz size. We salted to our taste at the table. Thanks I'll be making this one again.
