    Chicken Fettuccini
    Fettacini Pasta (boil)

    In fry pan
    onion
    chicken
    diced bacon
    Cook til chicken is cooked through.

    Add thickened cream & broken up chicken stock cubes (don't worry about dissolving in water first) Stir for a few minutes

    Add pasta & simmer til cream thickens.

    Can add shallots, mushrooms, parmesan. I put all in 'cept parmesan coz I keep forgetting to buy it!

    If you leave the chicken out it can be a side dish, or a full meal with the chicken

    OK I have been experimenting & this is what I have come up with for chicken curry pasta & sauce side dish

    In a zip-lock bag:
    1-1 1/2 cups small/quick cooking pasta (I used pasta pronto, 3 mins to cook normally)
    1 tsp curry powder
    1 tbsp corn flour
    1 tsp chicken stock
    dash of salt & pepper
    1/2 tsp sugar
    1/4 tsp tumeric (to make it yellow)

    Make sure there's no lumps in the powders/flours

    Then when you are ready to cook, put in a microwave safe bowl & add
    1 tbsp marg or butter
    1/2 cup milk
    1 1/4 cup boiling/hot water

    Microwave 6-8 mins depending on mircowave & stir 3-4 times during cooking

    You are awesome great job I am going to try that one out, thanks so much. My favourite one is the savoury tomato and onion I have to try and fugure that one out.

    Thanks again.
