Creamy Chicken Ravioli

Good Morning and Happy Monday!

Today I'm sharing one of my all time favourite pasta recipes with you! I got it a few years ago from Oxygen magazine and it is great! It is high protein (the pasta alone has 16grams), full of veggies, and low-fat cream cheese and pesto.

The fresh pasta is from the fresh pasta and sauce section in Costco (near the veggie cooler) and it is the white meat chicken and mozzarella ravioli. Best part about fresh pasta (other then the fact that its fresh) is that it cooks in under 5 minutes (just follow the package directions).

The sauce is also super easy! I sauteed 1 chopped red pepper and a big handful of fresh mushrooms. Then I added in 1 large tub of light cream cheese and about 1/4 cup of pesto. I stir it around until its melted and creamy and then pour it over the pasta. For my boyfriend and I it makes 4 servings but for normal people this should make about 6. Because this pasta is fairly high calorie its important to keep the your portion to about 1 cup.



Give it a try and let me know what you think!

Talk to you tomorrow!
