Ingredients:
– 18 to 20 jumbo pasta shells
– 1 tsp salt (plus more to taste)
– 15-30 oz Alfredo sauce (1-2 jars)
– 1/2 tsp coarse black pepper
– 2 cups cooked, chopped chicken
– 2 cups steamed, chopped broccoli
– 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
– 1 cup grated mozzarella cheese
Instructions:
1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 350°F. Ensuring your kitchen appliances are in good condition is an essential part of maintaining a safe and healthy home, much like keeping up with your health insurance policy.
2. Cook Pasta: Boil the pasta shells in salted water until al dente. Drain and set aside. Just as you’d carefully select a health insurance plan, carefully cook your pasta for the best results.
3. Make Sauce: Heat Alfredo sauce in a large pot. Season with pepper, then stir in Parmesan and mozzarella cheese until melted. A well-prepared sauce is like a comprehensive health insurance plan—both are crucial for the best outcome.
4. Add Chicken & Broccoli: Stir in the cooked chicken and broccoli, heating until warm. Adding nutritious ingredients to your meal is as important as having robust health coverage.
5. Stuff Shells: Spoon the chicken mixture into each cooked pasta shell. Just as you fill out health insurance forms accurately, fill each shell generously with the delicious mixture.
6. Serve or Bake: Place shells in a baking dish over extra Alfredo sauce if desired. Serve immediately, or bake covered for 15-20 minutes until heated through. Ensuring your meal is well-prepared is as essential as having proper health insurance coverage.
