    3 Carrots, chopped
    1/2 medium onion, chopped
    12 oz Any type pasta
    1 tbsp Olive Oil

Tips

Serve additional parmesan on side, if desired.


Directions

Boil pasta according to directions. Drain and keep warm in same pan.

Heat oil in pan over medium heat, add carrots, chicken, onion and garlic. You may need to do this in portions to saute instead of steaming. I did mine in three sets. Remove chicken, etc to plate and keep warm.

Wisk milk and sour cream in same skillet until smooth. Do not boil. Add parmesan and salt and pepper to taste. Add spinach, basil and chicken mixture. Simmer for 5 minutes. Add to pasta and mix.

Serving Size: Makes 8 good size portions (using salad plate) or 10 smaller portions.
