Canned or Fresh Alfredo Sauce?
This is a matter of personal preference! I will usually opt to make a fresh from scratch alfredo sauce. But on weeknights when we are running off to a variety of different activities, even getting a few minutes to cook can be tough! So I'll usually keep a jar of canned alfredo sauce in the cupboard just in case my night gets busy.

Shortcuts
To save even MORE time, you can precook and then freeze your chicken. I'll usually cook up my chicken and ground beef ahead of time and then freeze it an an airtight container to use as needed throughout the week. It saves a TON of time!
Your meat will store easily in the freezer for up to a month so if you want to make an even larger bulk amount you can do that too!

This recipe is made easily on the stovetop. It's done and ready in under thirty minutes!
