Can I Add Meat To Recipe
I think you could easily add in some cooked shredded chicken. Or you can cook your chicken in a pan and then pair with it if you would like.
How to Store Leftovers
This sauce will store in the fridge for a few days. If you have it mixed with the pasta, that is totally fine. Just put it all in an airtight container and store for a few days.
If you find the sauce is too thick add in a little chicken stock or more heavy cream. Then stir to help thin it out a little bit.

how many does this feed? and can sauce and pasta be made in advance and reheated later on sterno or on the grill at a park? we are doing a pumpkin potluck outdoors at a park and won’t have electricity. thanks.

Hey Jen, in terms of reheating with any alfredo it will reheat but the texture will be slightly different. In terms of feeding it is 4-6 servings size.
