Four Cheese Pasta Florentine

Okay so I did it, started on my resolutions!!  Last night I made a new recipe.  Brenda came over and brought a dessert she made. It was a great night!!  Both turned out awesome.  I highly recomend it!! I did add some chicken to it (browned it first)... here is the photos and the recipe!  It's from the Kraft Food Magazine that I get four times a year. 

 (Before heating above, after cooking below!)
