Lemon Chicken Fettuccine

This was a recipe out of Taste of Home. I changed a few of the ingredients to add my own flair. This was DELICIOUS! Aaron gave the seal of approval 😉 Btw ladies, the way to a mans heart truly is through his stomach! I was never much of a cooker until I got married. I can recall my friend, Sarah (who is a wonderful cook), coming over to teach me how to make spaghetti. It was entertaining to say the least and I have come a LOOOOONG way since then.

Bon Appetit Y’all!
