Here we go girls! I tried another great recipe for a lazy Friday night or Saturday afternoon. Imagine a rainy day, no parties or braais planned for the night – just you and your gorgeous hubby (and the kids of course) watching some movies and taking it easy!
Cheesy Chicken & Penne Bake is the perfect dish to complete a lazy day! Quick and easy, this recipe is also one of my one pot wonders!! The kids will just love it – pasta & cheese – great combination for those hungry tummies!!
