This is a great fast and simple pasta dish, with a sauce that is lower in fat, yet creamy! If you like artichokes, you'll like this! You can adjust all the seasonings to suit your tastes.
Salsa and chili powder add spice to this chicken stew, but probably not too much for timid tasters or kids. If you want to kick up the heat, use a hot salsa and a dash of hot sauce or ground red pepper.
Tiny yellow or red-fleshed potatoes are boiled until tender, smushed a little bit, then drizzled with an herb-infused oil and balsamic vinegar seasoning. The potatoes then get a trip through a hot oven to crisp up.
These creamy garlic mashed potatoes are so good, you can serve them plain--no butter or gravy is needed. Now, this is the only way we prepare mashed potatoes.
You can make this dish ahead--just cover and refrigerate or freeze after you've spread the final layer of marinara sauce. Serve with a salad and breadsticks to round out the meal.
