Creamy Pasta Primavera
Makes 3 Servings
Ingredients
-1 1/2 cup thick whole wheat noodles (I used Rotini in this dish)
-A bag of your favorite frozen vegetables (I used traditional California Blend) or chop up and saute fresh vegetables of your choice.
-1 cup of skim milk
- tbsp all-purpose flour
-1 tsp Salad Supreme seasoning
-1 tsp Mrs. Dash seasoning
-1/4 to 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
-3 portioned chicken breasts (I like Tyson and Perdue Chicken that is pre-packaged)
Directions
- Pasta: Cook the noodles as directed on the package.
- Vegetables: Thaw out the frozen vegetables.
- Cream Sauce: Add flour to 1/4 cup of milk and stir well. Add the remaining 3/4 cup of milk and stir well. Pour into small skillet. Add the seasonings. Heat the skillet to medium-high. Stir with a spatula, continually scarping the sides to prevent caking. Continue to stir until the sauce begins to boil; stir for 2 more minutes and remove from heat. Add Parmesan cheese and stir completely. Pour into a separate container to cool slightly.
- Chicken: In a small skillet heat the chicken on medium heat. Cover with a lid and cook form 3-4 minutes on each side. Continue to cover and cook until the temperature reads 165F. Remove from heat and cube.
- Total Dish: Pour 3/4 cup of pasta into a deep bowl. Top with 1 cup of frozen vegetables, 1/2 of a chicken breast, and a few tablespoons of sauce (a little goes a long way).
