Tuesday's Dinner

I know we are all always looking for a good inexpensive meal. I found one from BlissfullyDelish called Creamy Pesto & Chicken with Bow Tie Pasta. I call bow tie pasta farfalle and the girls call it butterfly pasta. It is a super easy recipe and to make it even easier I used leftover chicken from a rotisserie chicken.

The recipe is as follows:

Ingredients:

* 1 box of bow tie pasta
* 2 T margarine or butter
* 1 lb of chicken shredded or cubed
* 1 can cream of chicken soup
* 1/2 c pesto sauce
* 1/2 c milk
* 1/2 c of shredded Parmesan cheese

Directions:

1. Cook pasta,drain
2. Heat butter in skillet and cook chicken ( or just skip this step and use a rotisserie chicken)
3. Add soup, pesto, cheese and milk to the chicken
4. Bring to a boil and simmer on low for about 5 minutes
5. Stir in pasta and heat through

I thought it needed a little salt, but J and the girls gobbled it up as is. It makes a large portion. There is plenty for dinner with a salad and a roll. Or just save it for leftover night. Let me know if you try it out.
