Dinnertime: Creamy Spinach and Pea Pasta

Tuesday, February 26, 2013

This is one of the easiest recipes plus it's incredibly filling and yummy! 


Ingredients
1 cup heavy cream
2 cloves garlic minced
1 cup frozen peas
1 cup fresh spinach, chopped 
1/2 box penne
3 tablespoons butter
salt and pepper to taste
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts cooked and shredded

Cook your penne according to the directions. Add the peas during the last minute of cooking. Drain the pasta and peas and reserve the pot.

Melt the butter in the pasta pot over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for about 1 minute. Then add the cream, chicken, spinach, and salt and pepper to the pot and cook until the chicken is warmed through and the spinach is wilted. Add the pasta and peas and toss well.


Top with a little Parmesan cheese. Serves 4!
