    I stumbled on a very easy one-dish meal with pre-made ingredients from the store that you can also get as fancy as you want with. It's quite simple:

    Ingredients:

    • 2oz (about 57g) of fettuccine noodles per person.
    • 4oz (about 113g) pre-made vegan Alfredo sauce per person (I prefer Primal Kitchen No Dairy Garlic Alfredo Sauce).
    • 4oz (about 113g) Tofurky Lightly Seasoned Chick'n per person (I recommend this specifically because it has great consistency and mouthfeel to chew on and the seasoning is delicious and carries the rest of the dish).

    And that's it for the minimum. I'll throw in other stuff depending on what I have on hand, such as spinach (all I do is wash it and then throw it right in) and button mushrooms (sometimes grilled in very light teriyaki sauce or simply seared directly and briefly in a pan).

    Recipe:

    1. Place the fettuccine noodles in a pan large enough that the noodles fit within the pan. You can break them in half if it doesn't fit if you want, I won't judge ;)
    2. Cover with about 1.5 inches (4cm) of water
    3. Place on medium-high heat for 8-14 minutes.
    4. While waiting, cook the Tofurky. Microwaving it actually turns out quite good, but better would be an air fryer (I just put it on a small bit of aluminum foil) or cooking on a separate pan to get some charring.
    5. Place a pan lid on the pan with a small opening between the pan and lid and drain the water, leaving the noodles in the pan. Place back on the burner on low or medium-low heat.
    6. Add the Alfredo sauce, stir.
    7. Add the Tofurky, stir.
    8. Add additional ingredients such as mushrooms or spinach.
    9. Serve and enjoy.
