Perfect for a midweek meal, this Quick Creamy Chicken, Bacon & Truffle Mushroom Rigatoni can be on your table in less than 25 minutes. Inspired by creamy alfredo dishes, we've added truffle to add an earthy depth of flavour.
Boxes and ingredients are packed in facilities that handles Peanut, Nuts, Sesame, Fish, Crustaceans, Milk, Egg, Mustard, Celery, Soya, Gluten and Sulphites. Due to the war in Ukraine, it has been necessary to substitute sunflower oil with rapeseed oil in some products without a label change. The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.
