Directions
Healthy Creamy Chicken Pesto W/Pasta for One, The Beau and I have different work schedules, so I’m frequently cooking for one during the week This is super fast, effortless, and healthy It’s easily doubled for a night when I’m cooking for the both of us I always have the ingredients on hand and the creamy texture makes me think I’m getting away with an indulgence The chicken can be omitted for a vegetarian meal , Clean and simple I modified mine with adding peas (bacon would give it that carbonara flair) I found that a splash of milk gave a smoother texture and cut the richness of the yogurt I’m going to try fresh Roma tomatoes and balsamic glaze for the next add in , This was so good and easy! I didn’t include the mushrooms because I didn’t have any but it would be good either way
