I love this meal because aside from basil all the ingredients are simple pantry or freezer items you can always have on hand. It’s a great recipe to keep handy so if you have one of those busy nights where you want to make dinner instead of ordering take out yet you’re scratching your head on what to make if you keep these ingredients on hand you’ll be set to go! It’s always good to have one or two backup meals on hand whether they are some freezer meals you’ve put together or easy meals like this so you’re never stuck on what to make for dinner.
So what makes this meal so tasty? Pretty much everything. It’s creamy without being too heavy and the sun-dried tomatoes give it added flavor and texture. It tastes like delicious Italian restaurant style meal right in your own kitchen. If you’re up for it toss together a salad and even add in some breadsticks for a complete meal that is absolutely scrumptious!
