Creamy cheesy farfalle

Recipe from Elizabeth Copeman

Prep: 5 minutes
Cook: 30-45 minutes
Serves 2-4 (I usually double when serving 5)

1 jar alfredo sauce
1 can peas & carrots
6 oz package smoked ham, choppped
1 onion, chopped
1 package mushrooms, chopped to preference
1 clove garlic
Smoked gouda cheese
1 box farfalle pasta, cooked

Saute ham, onions, mushrooms and garlic until onions are clear and mushrooms are tender. (I sauté in olive oil.) Add alfredo sauce and peas/carrots. Sprinkle finely chopped smoked cheese over sauce and mix well. Simmer until cheese is thoroughly melted into sauce.

Serve over farfalle (bowtie) pasta.

Optional: top with or stir-in chopped or diced cooked chicken.

Comments from Elizabeth:
This meal is very similar to one served at Macaroni Grill and was taught to me by a friend in Duisburg, Germany.

    Everyone's sauce recipe is different. This one is more Sicilian and was handed down from my grandparents. The key is no exact measurements just flavor with ingredients below to taste.  In a large pot
