**8 oz. Whole Wheat Spaghetti
Directions
1. Put the oil in a large skillet and heat on medium high.

3. Add the undrained can of tomatoes and chicken. Bring to a boil. Let simmer until most of the moisture has evaporated and the tomatoes and chicken are hot.
4. When the pasta is al dente, stir the spinach, oregano, and basil into the tomato mixture.
5. Top whole wheat spaghetti with tomato/spinach/chicken mixture; top that with a bit of fat-free feta cheese, and serve with lime wedges.
**Spaghetti not counted on nutrition info because this also tastes great in a pita for lunch!

This is a revamp of a recipe I found on here. I'm sharing it right now because I need to access it on someone else's computer. It will go back to private when I'm done making it tonight.
