You can never go wrong with pasta. In most cases, any pasta dish gets hit for seconds, and thirds, Just because…Pasta.
The sun-dried tomatoes are ALWAYS a good choice in any dish, but mixed with the creamy sauce, fresh spinach, well seasoned chicken…man oh man. This dish is so thick and creamy, you will never forget how to make it. Definitely a family favorite in my books.
