I had some leftover mozzarella cheese and so I found this recipe online at "Buns in my oven..." to try. I was texting David and I told him that I was thinking of making a new recipe for dinner. He said, "Great, what is it?" I responded that it was bacon chicken broccoli pasta. He replied with something to the effect of, "Fantastic, What could be better than bacon, chicken, and cheese?" And that, my friends, is the true motto of "The Peaden Kitchen." Nothing is better than bacon, chicken, and cheese. Nothing.
