Tomato Cream Pasta
1 pound raw chicken, fresh or frozen 10 oz dry pasta 2 tsp minced garlic ½ tsp salt 1 Tbsp olive oil 2 cups diced tomatoes (or a 15 oz can) ½ tsp dried oregano ½ tsp dried basil ½ tsp ground black pepper 2 Tbsp tomato paste ¼ cup cream cheese ¼ cup grated mozzarella 1 cup chopped spinach or orach, fresh or frozen & thawed
Boil the chicken in a pot of salted water until it is completely cooked. Prepare the other ingredients during this time.
When the chicken is cooked, remove from the water and set aside. Add more water to the pot, bring to a boil, and cook the pasta. Shred the chicken while the pasta is cooking.
When the pasta is done, drain the water and add all the other ingredients to the pot. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until the cheese is melted and everything is mixed.
