Spinach and Bacon Pasta Toss


An easy dinner that's not too heavy feeling. I'm not saying it's totally healthy (it has bacon and cheese in it) but it's not that heavy feeling some dinners or pasta's can cause. It also tastes great heated up as leftovers.

I got it from the Kraft Canada webpage so you know it's going to be easy.

You need:

1 pkg (375 g) egg noodles
1/2 cup Italian dressing
1 lb (450 g) boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into cubes
2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
4 cups fresh baby spinach leaves
1 cup shredded mozzarella
8 slices bacon, crumbled

get the noodles started according to package directions.

heat dressing in large skillet on medium heat. add chicken. cook and stir until chicken is done. add tomatoes and cook 1 minute.

drain noodles but save 1/2 cup of the water. add noodles and reserved water to chicken in skillet. stir.

remove from heat. add spinach, 1/2 cup cheese and the bacon. mix lightly. sprinkle remaining cheese.

voila!

done!

serve!
