| Chicken and Cheese Rotini an easy nutritious meal for feeding the large family, although the recipe can be cut in half to feed the smaller family, or you can use this recipe and have left overs and even lunches the next day. So easy and quick using basically four ingredients five if ya include the olive oil, six the salt!! LOL! |
 |
| The ingredients are as followed: 2lbs of boneless skinless chicken breast Barilla Whole Grain Rotini Kraft Philadelphia Cooking Creme Italian Cheese and Herb Live Smart California Blend Vegetable mix from Schwans (you can use any mixed vegetable blend) |
 |
| Fill your large pot half with water and a few sprinkles of salt allow to boil and then turn down the heat to medium pour in the entire box of Barilla Rotini Noodles |
 |
| Mean while cut the boneless skinless chicken into bite sized pieces |
 |
| Spray your large skillet with olive oil (I pump my own with the sprayer from Bed Bath and Beyond) turning on the burner on medium high heat |
 |
| cook chicken on medium high heat until white |
 |
| Now that the water is boiling in go the noodles cooking until desired tenderness (my family likes theirs firm not mushy) approx. 7-9 minutes |
 |
| You can cover the chicken if you like and may add a 1/4 cup of water if sticking |
