Verdict:

I really enjoyed this dinner! Maybe part of it was because I didn't cook it, and I think everything tastes better when you didn't have to do all the work right? Thanks to my wonderful husband for cooking this one! We added a lot more cheese than what the recipe called for and it made it delicious!!! I'm a cheese-a-holic though so of course the more cheese the better for me. The sauce was nice and creamy and the tomatoes were perfect!! Scott sugggested next time to add the cajun seasoning to the sauce rather than coat the chicken with it.. I thought it tasted just fine the way it was but we'll try it different next time. Either way we'll be trying this recipe again once this challege is over. I also didn't care too much for the specifics. I used cherry tomatoes instead of "sun dried" and just regular pepper. You can also use whatever noodles you want. I used spaghetti because I already had it at home.
