So I made a twist on the original pesto sauce we are used to. To make it less fatty so the main thing is i used less olive oil and more flavor!
- 12 0z whole wheat pasta cooked
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breast cubed and cooked
- 3/4 c parmsean cheese
- 2 cups packed basil leaves
- 3 tbl pine nuts
- 2 tbl olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic crushed
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 tbl water
In a food processor combined basil, oil, pine nuts, garlic, salt, water and blend. Then add 1/2 cup parmesan cheese and puree. Toss with noodles and chicken over low heat top with remaing parmsean cheese and serve
