Pronto Pasta Parmesan

    Talk about adaptable! This one-pan meal can be made for more or fewer folks, using white or dark meat chicken from scratch, from a can or thawed, fully cooked, unbreaded chicken bites from the freezer. Cut chicken small and add more cans of mac and cheese to feed a crowd. 

    Canned mac and cheese is your shortcut ingredient. It comes with its own creamy sauce, ready for the pan. No need for a big pot of water wasted to cook pasta!  Colorful yellow and green squash and a bright splash of tomato bits make it a balanced dish. 
 
1 pound of boneless, skinless chicken, cut in small bites
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Medium zucchini, trimmed and cut in bite size
Medium yellow summer squash, trimmed and cut in bite size
½ teaspoon each garlic powder, basil, oregano
2 plum tomatoes, cut up and drained
2 to 3 cans, 15 ounces each, macaroni and cheese   
A shaker of  grated Parmesan cheese

    Sizzle the chicken in hot oil, gradually stirring in zucchini and squash. Sprinkle with seasonings and keep stir-frying until chicken is done and vegetables crisp-tender. Stir in tomatoes and macaroni and cheese. 
    Cover and cook over low heat until bubbly. Sprinkle with Parmesan now or pass it at the table. Serves 6 to 8.
