Creamy cheesy farfalle

Recipe from Elizabeth Copeman

Prep: 5 minutes
Cook: 30-45 minutes
Serves 2-4 (I usually double when serving 5)

1 jar alfredo sauce
1 can peas & carrots
6 oz package smoked ham, choppped
1 onion, chopped
1 package mushrooms, chopped to preference
1 clove garlic
Smoked gouda cheese
1 box farfalle pasta, cooked

Saute ham, onions, mushrooms and garlic until onions are clear and mushrooms are tender. (I sauté in olive oil.) Add alfredo sauce and peas/carrots. Sprinkle finely chopped smoked cheese over sauce and mix well. Simmer until cheese is thoroughly melted into sauce.

Serve over farfalle (bowtie) pasta.

Optional: top with or stir-in chopped or diced cooked chicken.

Comments from Elizabeth:
This meal is very similar to one served at Macaroni Grill and was taught to me by a friend in Duisburg, Germany.

    In Italian, the word "gelato" means "frozen" more than it means "ice cream." So, for as much as we have heard that gelato is the Italian equivalent of ice cream, this "gelato" is really a frozen mousse
    In Italian, the word "gelato" means "frozen" more than it means "ice cream." So, for as much as we have heard that gelato is the Italian equivalent of ice cream, this "gelato" is really a frozen mousse of a dessert. Quick and easy, with no ice cream maker needed, this dessert may be served as a chilled mousse or frozen completely as a "gelato."

    Celebrate warm weather with nature's sweet berries. Simply served with a light dusting of powdered sugar, this dessert is not a sugar overload, because it relies on the natural sweetness of in-season berries.

    Here is smoky and slightly spicy twist on fried catfish. Instead of coating the catfish in a thick beer batter, I marinate the raw pieces in beer before seasoning them and lightly dredging them in flour
