How To Make april fools pasta & chicken dinner

• 
  Step 1
  Add the chicken and sausages to a large pot, and cover with water. Then cook over medium high heat about 45 minutes until done. Reserve at least 2 cups of the cooking liquid to add to the casserole dish. I prefer to boil the sausages to release some of the sodium content, but that is optional use your discretion.

  Step 2
  This is what the Shirataki package looks like. Most larger stores do carry them in the refrigerated section of the produce department. I have also ordered them from Amazon.
• 
  Step 3
  Chop all the veggies, as desired. Mince or chop the garlic cloves. Then add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to a large skillet, heat over medium high heat, then add in the chopped veggies, and cook about 5-7 minutes.
• 
  Step 4
  Follow directions on package about noodle prep. Then drain and set aside till needed. I call this dish April Fools Pasta & Chicken, because it is not pasta in the real sense it is plant based, but it DOES TASTE like real pasta, and this is the month of April that I created this dish. No fooling YOU WILL LOVE THIS DISH.

  Step 5
  Cut up sausage and chicken into bite size pieces, then add to skillet. Cook to heat through with chopped veggies. My husband took away the sausage before I had time to get a picture.

  Step 6
  Next add in the Shirataki noodles, and stir to mix and blend with the other ingredients. This will take a bit of time because they sort of stick together, so add a small amount at a time, until all has been added & evenly distributed throughout the dish..

  Step 7
  Now add in both cans of condensed soup, then rinse both soup cans with reserved cooking liquid, from sausage & chicken, and pour into skillet. Add in the chia seeds & Stir as needed while dish heats completely through.

  Step 8
  Remove from heat, pour into a serving platter, add chopped green onions over the top if desired. Serve while still hot. Note I did not add any additional salt or pepper , but you may if you like. It was seasoned fine for us.
