Now that the trees are transforming in color, it is really beginning to feel like Fall here in Washington state.

Fall is about eating comforts foods, and nothing says comfort more than a pasta dish. Creamy Chicken Pasta with Broccoli is filling, filled with flavors and has that nice crunch of broccoli. I love how the bacon bites add a hint of smoky flavor. But what I like about this dish the most, is that all the cooking can be done pretty much in one dish, truly making this a simple dish.
Tell me about some of your favorite Fall dishes? I love hearing from each one of you!

did you use chicken thighs and how long did you bake them for and on what degree?
I use thighs, bake them for about 25 minutes or until they are fully cooked.
What step do you add the fresh garlic? Seems like it's missing, unless I missed it. Thank you! Making this right now.
I am probably too late, sorry. Today was our sons bday, such an overwhelming day. Add it when you add broccoli, I will make a note 🙂
This is so easy and so delicious! Great recipe!
