Chicken & Broccoli Alfredo Stuffed Shells

I�m always looking for new dinner ideas. Of course, having a food blog I need new recipes to post, but way before I had my blog I loved searching for new ideas! I have countless food magazines, cookbooks and I�m a big stalker of my friends� food blogs too. 

I came across this recipe awhile back from my friend Lauren�s blog Tastes Better From Scratch. (Her recipes are amazing so make sure to check out her blog if you haven�t yet!) I printed her recipe for these Chicken and Broccoli Alfredo Stuffed Shells the minute I  saw it and KNEW they were going to be awesome. 

Shredded chicken and broccoli are combined with Alfredo sauce and stuffed inside jumbo pasta shells. Easy peasy and SO good! I changed just a few things from her recipe. It was a busy day so I used jarred Alfredo to save on time. I know, I know- homemade is 100 million times better, so next time I make it I�ll be making the homemade. I also added garlic powder to the chicken for extra flavor. It was one tasty dinner and the leftovers the next day were even better!
