The colorful medley of sliced bell peppers adds an extra level of appeal to this Italian chicken pasta dish. Try substituting Italian sausage for the chicken for a different take on the meal.

What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.

I make this meal at least once a month for my family. Even my 6 year old loves it!! It is healthy and easy to prepare and because there are only 3 people in my family we always have leftovers, and they are delicious! This is also good served with rice if you're not in the mood for pasta.
