    1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped (1/2 Condiment)
    2 tbsp grated Kraft parmesan cheese (2 Condiments)

    10 oz grilled or baked chicken (1 2/3 Lean)

    1/2 cup Great Value Italian diced tomatoes, drained (1 Green)

Tips

2 servings with 1 Lean, 3 Greens, 2.25 Condiments and 1 Healthy Fat per serving


Directions


To make pesto, combine all the ingredients for the pesto in a small blender or food processor. I used my magic bullet. Blend until desired consistency. Set aside.

Lightly spray a non-stick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add spaghetti squash, chicken and pesto. Stir until combined and heated thoroughly. When heated, toss in the diced tomatoes. Divide the mixture into two portions. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese between the two portions. Enjoy!
