Creamy Chicken, Spinach, and Artichoke Pasta
August 27, 2014 by Michelle Leave a Comment
This pasta is sooo good, and it is a quick and easy weeknight meal. You can’t beat that! The sauce is kind of alfredoish (yes, I know that is not a word), but maybe a smidge (apparently also not a word) healthier. I mean it has eight ounces of Mascarpone cheese and a cup of Parmesan cheese in it, but that is balanced with non-fat Greek yogurt and olive oil. And, when you compare that with butter and heavy cream, it comes out on top. And, it has chicken, spinach, and artichokes mixed in, which make it completely yummy and gives you some veggies.
I served this over whole grain corkscrew pasta, but any pasta would work. We eat…
