In pan cut chicken breast into cubes and cook completely with onions and garlic. As chicken begins to cook thru, add zucchini and bell peppers (red & yello). Add water at any time if necessary to keep from drying out (I also used a tiny bit of olive oil)
As chicken begins to cook, follow directions for McCormick Alfredo Mix or any other brand (per directions I used, mix Alfredo mix with 2 C. 1% Milk and 3 T. Butter and heat on stove)
When chicken and vegetables are completely done, add tomotoes and cottage cheese. Cook on stove until most of water has evaporated and cheese has melted. Add alfredo sauce.
