THE DAY THE SUN STOOD STILL

OK, well the sun didn't actually stand still, but we, non-the-less, experienced the most amazing miracle. I made a pasta dish for supper and Dad/Dave ate 'what he took' without a word of complaint. The next day he heated up for himself some of the leftovers. He ate it and then heated up a second helping. Never in 35 years of marriage has he ever finished the 'what he took on his plate' amount of pasta, nor has eaten leftover pasta, let alone take seconds. Wonders never cease! We truly experienced a miracle! LOL

Now in case you are wondering, this is what I made:
Chicken Caesar Pasta
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 lb boneless,skinless chicken breast cut in cubes
1 can cream of celery soup
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup caesar salad dressing
4 cup hot cooked linguine
1 medium tomato, diced
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1 parmesan cheese

Heat oil at medium high heat in a large skillet. Add chicken and cook
10 minutes or until browned. Reduce heat to low. Stir in soup, water
and salad dresing. Heat to a boil, stirring occasionally. Cover and
cook over low heat until chicken is cooked through -about 5 minutes.
Toss with linguine and tomato. Sprinkle with pepper and cheese.
Variation: Can also use 1C halved cherry tomatoes.

actually cream of celery could probably be replaced with cream of chicken.

It is good because it didn't grow on his plate! LOL
