If you like simple meals that are done in 30 minutes with very few dirty dishes, you are in the right place! This one pot hot dish is creamy and delicious. It cooks quickly and is perfect for busy weeknights.

You get all of the comfort of a casserole without the dirty dishes or oven time. Everything cooks together on the stove for a satisfying but simple dinner.
This is another recipe that was shared with me on Facebook. Tracy shared it quite some time ago and knew we had to try it.
She is also the one who shared the mustard ranch chicken recipe that became an instant hit in our house. So, I knew it was going to be good.


I adjusted her recipe slightly as we made it. I added an extra can of green beans for more veggie goodness.
To counteract the additional liquid, I also increased the pasta a bit. So now the recipe makes a little bit more, but we still eat most of it in one sitting.


We are lucky to have one serving for leftovers. Then it is a fight as to who gets to eat them!
