This is so yummy. I have adapted my favorite to be lighter! Ingredients:
18 ounces whole wheat penne |
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts |
1 (10 ounce) package frozen spinach, chopped |
4 garlic cloves |
1 cup cherry tomatoes |
14 ounces fat free cream cheese |
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese |
28 ounces chicken broth |
Directions:
1. Cut chicken in bite size pieces. Put half of the chicken broth in a pot and add chicken, cook until no longer pink.
2. Add the remaining chicken broth, cream cheese and chopped garlic, stir frequently to melt cream cheese.
3. Once cream cheese is melted, add spinach.
4. Cook pasta separately
5. Cut the cherry tomatoes in quarters and add last.
6. Stir in the pasta.
7. Let stand for a few minutes to thicken.
8. Season with salt and pepper as desired.
