Chicken and Broccoli Pasta in Sherry Cream Sauce

I have a love/hate relationship with this time of year. I love it because it’s beautiful. The trees are changing color, the days are mild and the nights are cool. It’s the perfect time to be outside.

The perfect time… unless you have allergies. And everyone in my family has allergies. Sniffing and coughing usually drown out the sounds of the Autumn breeze rustling the leaves on the trees. Sinus headaches and runny noses are sometimes enough to put a damper on any fun outdoor activity.

Dressing your kids for this weather is tough too. How do you dress kids for a 40 degree shift in temperatures? Layers are obviously the answer, but try to explain to a 4 year old exactly how many layers they can take off. What you end up with is a couple of kids running around without a shirt on by the end of the afternoon.

Making dinner is just as confusing. My heart gets set on soup at 6 in the morning when its 40 degrees outside, but by 4PM it’s way too hot for it.

So, what do cook for the weird weather days of Autumn? My answer is Chicken and Broccoli Pasta in Sherry Cream Sauce. I have really been on this creamy dish kick for the last couple of weeks now. This one is just hearty enough to satisfy that I-want-it-to-be-cold-outside urge without causing your diners to break out in a sweat.

The sherry cream sauce has a lot of flavor and could be used with any combo of veggies and would even be delicious over rice or zucchini noodles instead of egg noodles.
