Chicken Pasta with Cream sauce

This is so yummy. I have adapted my favorite to be more WW friendly.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Cut chicken in bite size pieces. Put half of the chicken broth in a pot and add chicken, cook until no longer pink.
  2. Add the remaining chicken broth, cream cheese and chopped garlic, stir frequently to melt cream cheese.
  3. Once cream cheese is melted, add spinach.
  4. Cook pasta separately and add to pasta after the spinach.
  5. Cut the cherry tomatoes in quarters and add last.
  6. Let stand for a few minutes to thicken. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese if desired. Season with salt and pepper as desired.

According to my point calculator it is 9 points? How did you get the 6 points (because that number is much more desirable!) :)

6 or 9 it sounds really good.. I'll just eat a smaller portion and have a big serving of vegetables with it!
