I HAVE NO IDEA (CHICKEN WITH ROTINI PASTA)
I threw this together one night when I had no idea what to make for dinner. When my husband asked what we were having, I said, "I have no idea" - and we've called it that ever since. I've added shrimp at the very end and cooked it just until pink - it was even more delicious!
