Keeping it simple tonight. Busy with stuff going on. Just a simple pork sandwich and cucumber salad last night.
Tonight, meatless night. I have an extra pint of cherry tomatoes to use up; so, a quick fresh sauce with peppers, onions, basil over pasta. Maybe a small green salad on the side.
I also have to prep for two of my ladies cocktail party tomorrow night. My catering friends daughter is going to be helping me.

I'll post the recipe later
8 oz. Spaghetti (or your favorite pasta shape), uncooked*
1 tbsp. margarine (or butter)
1 tbsp. vegetable oil (or olive oil)
1 1/4 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
5 green onions, sliced
2 large clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. black pepper
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
1 1/3 cups chicken broth
2/3 cup milk
2 tsp. prepared mustard
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
Topping:
1/4 cup chopped almonds
2 tbsp. chopped chives or scallions
1/4 tsp. paprika (optional)
Combine flour, salt, pepper and cayenne in a saucepan; gradually add chicken broth and skim milk, stirring with a wire whisk until smooth. Place over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Add mustard and lemon juice. Allow to cool.
Heat margarine and oil in a skillet. Add chicken pieces, green onions and garlic. Sauté until chicken is just firm and cooked through, about 10 minutes.
Prepare pasta according to package directions and drain.
Combine sauce, chicken and pasta mixture. Put into a 2 1/2-quart casserole dish. Sprinkle top with almonds, chopped chives and paprika (if using). Bake at 375° for 10 minutes or until heated through.
