This past weekend, my family went to the Arizona Science Museum courtesy of Blended Conference. We had such a great time that we’re looking into getting a family pass for a year!

There was so much to see, and we checked out many of the exhibits on all 3 floors, but towards the end, Abby was getting kind of cranky – so it was more of a hurried pace. We missed some things and we would like to go back and see them!

As we drove home, I asked Brian to stop at the store so I could pick up something easy for dinner. Being a Sunday, most of the restaurants we passed were full of people and I really did not feel like trying to find a place to accommodate seven people! It’s not easy with a larger family, let me tell you! We always have to wait – and sometimes, it’s just not worth it. Since we had already had a long day and one kiddo was not being cooperative – picking something up on our way home really was the easiest solution.

A great dinner idea

We spotted a Smart & Final right off the freeway. Brian sat in the van with the kiddos while I made a mad dash inside to decide what to make! Pasta always goes over well in the Love Bakes Good Cakes house so I found the aisle with the pasta sauce. I grabbed the few things I needed for dinner, then headed home.

If you’re not familiar with Smart & Final, it is a great place to do a one-stop shop of everything from produce to meats. Smart & Final carries warehouse size items without a club fee, making shopping easy, less expensive and less daunting to shop in than a big warehouse store! It is the perfect place for you to shop for all of your food needs, bakery items, etc.

Ingredients 

  • 2 tablespoons La Romanella pure olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 green pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 red or yellow pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 jar La Romanella Roasted garlic Pasta Sauce, 26 oz.
  • 3 – 3 ½ cups water
  • 1 cup black olives
  • 16 oz La Romanella Organic Fusilli

Instructions 

  • Add the oil to a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add the chicken and garlic. Cook and stir until the chicken is no longer pink, about 4-5 minutes. Add the green and yellow peppers and continue to cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  • Add the pasta sauce, 3 cups water, black olives and pasta. Stir. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover with a lid and lower heat to low. Simmer for 9-11 minutes or until the pasta is al dente and most of the liquid has been absorbed.
  • Depending on how fast your pasta cooks, you may need to add more water.

Notes

  • I love one pot meals – you can add a salad and bread if desired.
