Ingredients:
120-180g of pasta (depending on how big you want the portions)
1 bell pepper
100g mushrooms
Spinach
1 chicken breast
1 garlic clove
2 tsp red pesto paste
100g cream cheese
Method
Bake the chicken in the oven at 180 degrees fan for 30-40 minutes until cooked through. If following the MABL meal plan, you may have already prepared some shredded chicken, so you do not need to cook more chicken.
Start cooking the pasta as per the instructions.
While the pasta is cooking, chop the peppers and mushrooms.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a pan and fry the peppers on low-medium heat for 3-4 minutes.
Once softened, add the mushrooms and fry for 2-3 minutes.
Add garlic and cook for a further 1 minute.
Mix in the red pesto and cream cheese.
Add a handful of spinach into the pan, and once the spinach has wilted, remove the pan from the heat.
Once the pasta and chicken are ready, add them to the creamy mixture and mix well until combined, serve and enjoy.
