It’s been awhile, but once you see this recipe, you’ll see it was worth the wait! :D
This fresh, colorful pasta dish is *perfect* for summer.
The sweet, crisp bell peppers add such a wonderful flavor to the chicken and the creamy alfredo sauce. The color and taste really bring this dish to life! :)
Pour over some funky farfalle pasta and top with a little fresh basil (from my garden! :)) – this dish is definitely pasta perfection! :)

Speaking of summer- I was browsing The Polkadot Alley the other day and they have the *cutest* new beach and pool accessories! :) Have you seen them?? Run over there and check them out! :)
Aren’t they to die for? :) I thought you’d think so. That’s why I thought a $30 gift certificate to The Polkadot Alley would be the perfect giveaway to kick off the summer here at kevinandamanda.com! ;)
Look at that *cute* terrycloth lounge chair cover! Doesn’t it look so soft and comfy! My regular beach towel never covers the entire chair. This cover would be perfect! Or the beach bag and matching towel!! Wouldn’t I look so hip toting that to the pool? ;) Or that SUPER CUTE cooler!! I love it!!! Oh- and the cupcake tray?? Wait, is it too late to cancel this giveaway and keep the gift certificate all for myself?? :D
No no, rest assured, I want *you* to have it! :) As a way to say thank you for being such a loyal reader! :) And you can tell me what you got and I can live vicariously through you. :D
To be entered to win the $30 gift certificate to The Polkadot Alley, leave a comment on this post- you can tell me what you’d get if you want! (or how delicious my colorful summer pasta looks ;D) The winner will be chosen by his or her comment number, which will be picked by Random.org’s number generator. But hurry!

I really enjoy getting emails from you. You have such great ideas for recipes, scrapbooking, etc. and the photos are always amazing. The Polka Dot Alley items are just so cute and summery.
Keep up the good work and all the wonderful ideas!
I agree with you Amanda, my beach towel never covers the whole chair so that wouuld be my choice! And yes, your dish looks so summer and yummy!!
OH MY, I know whats for dinner tonight!! This looks so good, sure my husband will love it too! I have always wanted an alternate way to make alfredo sauce, ha, I say alternate, I mean some thing other than a jar :) Your recipies are so simple and so good!! (I don’t cook, but I don’t mind these…they don’t require a ton of time, which I have none of) OH and I love the fonts, can’t wait to actually sit down and figure it out so I can use them!
I like the safari lapdesk. Oh, and your pasta does look delicious!
I really need a new cooler to take to the beach – I was actually searching for them yesterday. Looks like a great site!

I love the custom t-shirt dresses! Thanks Amanda!
Those are sooooo cute! I will so have to try that pasta!
I would maybe get a beach bag. Went to beach recently and wasn’t very well prepared. I also really like the personalized koozies as gifts for a couple of friends.
I love this site..I visit it often. Its so bright and cheerful all the time..LOVE IT!!! Thank you for your time!
I would totally get the beach bag with matching towel! I have a little boy and I feel like I always carried/carry little boy things! This would make me feel girly!

The giveaway is great!! such cute stuff!! but i just wanted to say how this recipe is right up my alley! so much so, that i’m making it this week sometime!! :)
It looks like they have some neat stationery…I’d probably get that. Or maybe a tote bag.
Your chicken and pasta looks delish! Think I need to put it on our summer menu. The PolkaDotAlley is a great site, thanks for sharing! I think I’d pick the beach cooler in the flower pattern. Everything is so cute, hard to decide!
Amanda – Thank you for the chance to win such a great prize – I would probably buy the chair cover. Looks good……….
First of all your pasta looks amazing! I’ll be trying that recipe out for sure! Second, I have never visited the Polka Dot Alley! They have some super cute items! I have to say though that I’m partial to the cute little cupcake tray, it would look so cute on my patio set during a barbecue!
Great Ideas!! Thanks so much for sharing!!
i will definitely be trying that beautiful pasta dish! it would take me a long time to decide what to get with that gift certif. i love the cooler, but the cover for the chair is cute too!

Oh wow, that pasta looks absolutely delicious! I will definitely have to make that sometime soon since my husband loves that kind of stuff. :)
Haha, I’d have a hard time picking what I’d get if I got that gift certificate. Everything on that site is just too cute!
Anything with my two favorites, chicken & pasta, is worth trying! It does look yummy!
I’ve been lurking around your blog for a while. I must say, you have some great recipes! I love the mac n cheese one! It is some of the best mac n cheese I have ever had!

Wow I’m travelling this week but that pasta looks like dinner this weekend. Yum! I have never been to the Polkadot Alley until today. What a cute site. I love the idea of the lounge chair cover with the side pockets. Perfect for the pool!!
I just went online to the polka dot site and they have sooo many cute things! But, I must say the cupcake tray is still my fav!
Thanks for the great blog and fun things you share!
mmmmm… that pasta makes me wanna go eat!! :)
i would SO get a personalized koozie so my husband would stop taking mine!!
I tried the pasta recipe last night! My fiancee’ loved it. As for the adorable pool accessories, I’ve got to admit that the cooler would come in pretty handy for all the picnics to the beach we take!
this may be the perfect dish to cure my hubby’s summertime alfredo cravings. i love, Love, LOVE that you used half-and-half instead of heavy cream! yum! can’t wait to try. =)
YUMMMMOOOOOO !!!!!! I’m hungry again just seeing your Alfredo recipe and I just ate supper. I can’t wait to try it. I would love love love the lounge chair. This would look so much nicer with me laying in it. :D

I just LOVE that lounge chair cover! How clever! I will definitely have to check that website out! I have been following your website for almost 2 years now. I was googling webpages for recipe card ideas and yours was one of the first ones I hit on. I have to say that I “scraplifted” a couple of the layouts you used for your recipe cards! I teach classes at my local scrapbook store and love looking on your site for ideas! Thanks for all the great fonts too!! You do such an amazing job!
I love all of them, such fun summer colors. If I had to pick one it would be the beach bag and matching towel although I think the birthday platter is very cute. Thanks for the chance to win the GC.
I have tried several of your recipes…my family loved the chicken alfredo, and the chicken enchiladas so I am looking forward to trying this one out also! I just visited the Polka Dot Alley….some really adorable stuff…and I have a couple of graduation gift to purchase also so going back to shop! Thanks for always sharing! Robin

The pasta looks very yummy! May have to try that one tonight! Thanks for the recipe.
Love the pasta dish. Pretty and tasty I am sure! Love your blog! I just found it today and I am very excited about it.
I’d have trouble choosing between the terry cloth chair cover (so smart and even a place to keep that sand off your phone) or the cooler. Love the photos of your dish…so bright and yummy looking!
Wow! Their stuff is so cute! How does one choose? I love the chair cover, but the bags are cute too! Your pasta does look delish. I know my hubby would love it!
I love alfredo sauce…. It looks so much like the Pasta primavera I love from my favorite resturant in Ft. Worth TX.
Thanks for the chance to win!
Your pasta looks super yummy. For a lighter version, have you tried using just chicken broth or stock? Don’t you just love utilizing what you’re growing? And your recipe could be altered for whatever’s in season in your garden–asparagus, zucchini/squash. Yum, thanks for sharing! (o:
I love the cooler in the Boho Flower print. And I’ve used several of your recipes. The one I like the best & use a lot is your Cheeseburger Chicken. Yummy & easy!
Yum! I want to make this pasta dish for dinner tonight!!
That pasta dish looks –amazing–!!!! My new roommates and I just moved in together (there’s 6 of us!) and I want to make it for our first dinner together! :)
I can’t believe I didn’t know about The Polka Dot Alley before!! Everything looks SO cute and fun!! I think I would get something from their “collegiate” items!! :)
This is a darling site…I’ve never seen it before. Thanks for introducing me! And that matching bag/towel is to die for!! :)
Pick me, pick me! I would buy WAY more than the gift certificate would cover!
Loving the Damask Duffle Bag (nice) and all the matching items that could go with it….oh, the possibilities! Thanks for finding this site – it’s sooo cute!
