Gluten-Free Chicken Alfredo and French Bread

Tonight Casey requested her favorite pasta dish, Chicken Roasted Garlic Alfredo w/ broccoli. Casey also requested some kind of bread to accompany the pasta dish. Hmm, I pulled out my favorite gluten-free cookbook (“Gluten-Free Baking Classic”) and made the French Bread recipe. This took awhile (10 mins prep time and 25-30 mins cook time. This was my first time making this recipe. I didn’t let the bread rise as much as the recipe called for, but that sure didn’t affect the end result, yummy. The photo was taken after I sliced some of it up for serving.

While pasta is cooking…
Cook the broccoli in the microwave as indicated on the packaging.
