Chunky Spinach Pasta
I have made my own version of this pasta to erase a bunch of unneeded and unwanted calories. I use any kind of whole grain pasta. Organic is preferred but it's not a perfect world an organic gets expensive!! Chicken breast, lots of tomatoes (fresh, sundried,canned-depends on how saucy you like your pasta). If you are using canned, try to buy organic and check the sodium. I use probably 6 cups of spinach. It adds calcium and vitamin K and is super delicious in my opinion. :) Add onion, peppers, etc to taste. The original recipe calls for a pkg of feta cheese which is delicious but very high in fat/calories. I add a few tbsp of cottage cheese instead to mine to give it the creamy flavor and texture of a feta cheese. This pasta lasts Aaron and I probably 5 days. Quick and easy! I like to pack it for my lunch. :)
