Ingredients

    Pesto packet, Chicken breast, olive oil, water, mushrooms, whole wheat pasta

Directions

I cut the chicken breasts in half to make 6 small breast pieces. Throw on pan until they are no longer pink on the outside. While cooking, mix pesto sauce olive oil & water in a bowl with a whisk. Pour onto chicken and add mushrooms. Keep at medium temp until sauce thickens. Boil & cook whole wheat pasta. Serve Chicken & Mushrooms over pasta. Sometimes I make w/zucchini & squash when in season. It is a very filling meal with the "good" fat our bodies need!
