Description

A healthier pasta dish with tons of veggies without all the extra calories!

Ingredients

  • 4 ounces, weight Whole Wheat Spaghetti
  • 6 ounces, weight Low Fat Greek Yogurt
  • 1 whole Zucchini Cut Into Slices
  • 1 head Broccoli Fresh Or Frozen Chopped
  • 1 whole Red Pepper, Stem And Seeds Removed, Cut Into Strips
  • 10 whole Baby Carrots, Cut Into Slices
  • 2 cloves Garlic, Minced
  • 4 pieces Chicken Tenderloins
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 3 dashes Salt
  • 3 dashes Pepper
  • 3 dashes Seasoning Salt
  • ½ cups Milk
  • ½ cups Grated Parmesan Cheese

Preparation

1. Boil the water for your pasta, according to the package instructions.
2. Set out your yogurt and allow it to come to room temperature.
3. Prep your veggies.
4. Cut chicken into bite size pieces.
5. Season chicken with a few dashes of salt, pepper, and seasoning salt.
6. Spray a saute pan with cooking spray and heat it over medium heat. Add chicken and cook until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Set chicken aside in a bowl and cover it to keep warm.
7. Add the olive oil into the skillet and heat it. Then add the veggies and garlic, stirring and cooking for about 3 minutes or until just barely cooked. Turn off heat and cover the skillet to keep the mixture warm.
8. Once your water is boiling, cook your pasta per the instructions on the box. Drain it once it’s done cooking.
9. In another saute pan over medium heat, add your milk and allow it to get very hot, almost boiling.
10. Add the grated cheese and mix well. Then turn the heat down to low and allow the mixture to thicken slightly, about 3 minutes.
11. In the same pot that you boiled the pasta in, add your pasta, the Greek yogurt and the milk/cheese mixture. Toss this all together to blend well.
12. Then add veggies and chicken and stir until blended together.
13. Plate, add more cheese if you want and enjoy!
