Chicken Carbonara Pasta Bake

by Katrina - The Organised Housewife

The whole family will enjoy a super quick and easy Chicken Pasta Bake, with a cheesy carbonara twist. 

This is one of those great weekday dinners that can be made quickly in the evening, simply boil the pasta, brown the bacon, garlic and onion in the saucepan, shred the chicken and add the sauce ingredients into a jug. Mix everything together in the saucepan and pour into a casserole dish.

Then sprinkle with cheese.  This Chicken Carbonara Pasta Bake is not creamy despite having a creamy sauce base.  When baked the cream and eggs cook together to make a quiche-like texture.
