I love Alfredo sauce, but I don't make it from scratch. The prepared bottled Alfredo available at the grocery store saves time. I wanted to create a version of Alfredo that had vegetables and chicken. This is the one I settled on, my family loves it.

Combine onion, celery, peppers, mushrooms, and spices into Dutch oven, cut chicken tenders into strips lengthwise so the chicken crumbles upon cooking, saute over medium heat until veggies soften, adding broth to keep moist about 15-20mins
2

Add both jars of Alfredo sauce, thin with vegatable broth for desired consistency if necessary, check taste and add any additional seasoning needed
3

Reduce heat to slow simmer and allow flavors to marry for about 30 mins, stirring occasionally
4

Fold in grape tomatoes, allow to cook about 5 mins more
5

Remove from heat, allow to cool at least 10 mins, before service, fold in fresh spinach leaves, serve over cooked multi colored penne pasta, and enjoy
