Sun-Dried Tomato Fettuccine Recipe

My husband’s favorite food is fettuccine Alfredo. I don’t mind it but prefer pasta with a tomato based sauce, so I combined the two and made this Sun Dried Tomato Fettuccine Recipe.

It is so creamy, delicious, and beyond easy to make. If you are looking for a simple dinner, this is your recipe. You can throw it together in minutes, and it tastes absolutely amazing.

What meat could I add to this fettuccine recipe?

If you are like my husband, you need meat in every meal. I am a meat lover as well, so I will usually add meat to this recipe.

I like to keep it easy and basic. I will add any meat I have on hand. With this recipe, I have tried:

-Grilled Chicken
-Boiled and Shredded Chicken
-Ground Beef
-Ground Turkey
-Shredded Turkey
-Turkey Sausage

This recipe is extremely versatile. You could also use a different sausage, but I prefer the turkey sausage because it it a little lighter on my stomach.

How can I make this Sun-Dried Tomato Fettuccine gluten free?

If you are looking to make this recipe gluten free, we recommend using a gluten free pasta. These are found on the gluten free aisle at grocery stores.

Tips to simplify and recipe shortcuts:

I love how simple and easy this recipe is. I am always looking for shortcuts when I cook, or ways to save time. This recipe, is definitely a time saver as it is.

If you are looking to make this recipe a little ahead of time, I recommend cooking your noodles ahead of time and adding about a Tablespoon of olive oil to them, to keep them from sticking together.
