Chicken Artichoke Pasta

~~~
This pasta is a combination of some of my favorite ingredients-artichokes, sun-dried tomatoes, alfredo, and pasta-Yum!
Of course I get a bunch of complaints from my kids about all the extra "junk" in their pasta:)

1 box Penne pasta
3 chicken breast, cooked & diced
3 T. sun-dried tomato
1 14 oz can artichokes
1/2 fresh lemon-squeezed-juice
Alfredo sauce-in the jar or homemade
Salt
Pepper
A sprinkle of garlic salt
Parmesan Cheese
Cook and drain the pasta.

Cook the chicken and add the sun-dried tomato and artichoke,
heat through.
Squeeze in the lemon juice, add the salts and pepper.
Throw in the pasta and Alfredo sauce and toss to coat.
Sprinkle with Parmesan Cheese.


Alfredo Sauce

1/4 c. butter
3 c. whipping cream
Parmesan cheese
Garlic salt

In a heavy bottomed pot melt butter, add the cream and cheese. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly add in desired amount of garlic salt.

Enjoy!
