Day 403 | Salsarita Pasta

Do you remember when Trader Joe's made real meals for their samples instead of just warming up one of their frozen products? I do. I miss those days.

This is one of the recipes I got during a shopping trip years ago. It's a goodie and so so simple. 

Salsarita Pasta

• 1.3 lbs (approx) chicken, cut into small chunks 
• Italian seasoning
• 1 large jar of salsa (on the runnier side, I use Pace Picante)
• Noodles of your choice (I use whole wheat penne)
• Parmesan cheese

Directions

• Coat chicken with Italian seasoning. 
• Sauté chicken with a little olive oil over medium heat until cooked through. 
• Meanwhile, cook pasta in a pot of boiling water. 
• After straining the pasta, stir in the salsa. 
• Add the cooked chicken to the pasta and stir. 
• Let the pasta/chicken cool. Serve room temperature with Parmesan cheese sprinkled on top. 

It was a crowd pleaser at our house tonight: Robbe had three servings.
