So growing up my mom would always make tuna casserole. It has to be one of the worst creations ever. I loathe it so much that I'd probably eat beef instead (FYI- I stopped eating beef in high school) if it were an option.
Anyways, I made this Pesto Chicken Florentine dish that I found on the All-Recipes website (http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Pesto-Chicken-Florentine/Detail.aspx). I didn't have spinach so I sauteed some mushrooms with minced garlic, threw in some peas, added left over fauxtesserie chicken from last night (recipe to follow in upcoming blogs once I have more time and can load pictures). Sounds pretty good, right? Then you mix it with an alfredo sauce that has a couple spoonfuls of pesto in it and stir it all up.
GROSS!!! It was almost exactly like tuna casserole. The texture was wrong, the peas were gross, it was some kind of a glutenous glob with chunks of dry meat and tough peas. Kinda sad, the chicken from last night was quite tasty, moist, flavorful, delicious, never will buy a real rotisserie chicken unless I pressed for time, etc...
The recipe might have been okay if I'd followed it exactly (he he he) but there are so many other recipes that are lots better. Don't waste your time with this one. However, if you do... let me know?
