I still can’t believe that we’re living in Las Vegas. Not just because it’s Las Vegas, because I honestly never thought I’d move out of California. I was supposed to be a Cali girl forever. But I guess you never know where life will take you. This thing we call life is a rollercoaster ride and we should throw our hands up in the air and enjoy it.

We’ve eaten out so much in the past few weeks, that if I had to eat out one more time I was going to pull my hair out. But the problem is I don’t have the time to be in the kitchen for more than 10 minutes. I’m one busy busy girl!

I created this quick and easy (10 minute meal, yes it’s only 10 minutes) Four Cheese Chicken Enchilada Pasta using Barilla Pronto Pasta and Tyson’s Grilled and Ready Chicken Strips. Barilla Pronto Pasta is a no boil pasta, that’s done within 10 minutes. I was really pleased with how easy and delicious this pasta is. Also, Tyson’s Grilled and Ready Chicken Strips are 98% fat-free, no preservatives and heat up in the microwave quickly. Both items are what make this recipe ready to eat within 10 minutes. I got both products at Wal-Mart while I was grocery shopping last week too. Score!
