Cajun Chicken Sausage Alfredo
K absolutely loved this meal, like, not even kidding you, he kept raving about it. We were making it for him to take for lunch, but he pretty much begged to eat it right then and take something else. He NEVER does that. This is a one-pot meal, so it’s super easy. You definitely want to try it!
