With all the other menu items to be prepared for the Italian Feast night, I took a few shortcuts on this dish. If you want to make your favorite Alfredo Sauce recipe to use here, feel free. But if you're looking for a great weeknight meal that I'm sure the kids will love, take the short cuts I did!
1 16 oz. box ziti pasta cooked according to package directions and drained well
3 cups cooked shredded chicken
1 16 oz. jar of four cheese Alfredo sauce
1 16 oz. jar of basil pesto Alfredo sauce
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9 x 13 casserole dish with non-stick spray.
Mix cooked ziti, chicken and the Alfredo sauces in a large bowl. (Or, do as I did, and use the same pot you cooked the pasta. You'll have one less bowl to wash!)
Place half the pasta mixture into the casserole dish and sprinkle with half the mozzarella cheese.
Pour the remaining pasta mixture and top with remaining cheese.
Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake for 5 - 7 minutes until browned and bubbly.
