A mixture of pasta, broccoli, pesto, tomatoes and cheese that is practically a meal in itself, especially with the cooked chicken. Great served with crusty bread or a tossed salad. Try using bow tie pasta for an added variation!

[email protected]This pasta dish was just okay. The chicken was a bit dry, but the broccoli was cooked well. The sauce was creamy and cheesy, but it was a bit too heavy for my taste. I probably wouldn't make this again.
