On weeknights after working all day or playing family chauffeur taking kids to and from soccer practice, dinner needs to be quick, easy, kid-friendly and delicious! It’s not an opinion, it is just a fact. This Chicken Alfredo Italian Totchos recipe was designed for a weeknight such as that, because it is fast, easy, and everyone in the family will love it.

My goal with this recipe was to make dinner a happy time with a wholesome meal that both kids and adults will love. What kid (or big kid) does not LOVE Chicken Alfredo? There is just something so warm and comforting about that creamy, cheesy sauce. But let’s face it, on a busy weeknight, who wants to stand over the hot stove constantly stirring the sauce for 30 minutes, especially with kids and pets under foot?

We love Italian Nachos when eating out at one of our favorite restaurants. However, we can’t afford to eat out every night. That is why we love Prego® Homestyle Alfredo Sauce.
