Directions
Pesto Chicken Mostaccioli, Taking a Simple and Delicious Recipe and trying to make it light , My family really enjoyed this dinner because it was something different from the usual pasta with meat, cheese and tomato sauce recipes that are common on this site I had the original recipe from TOH and combined a few of the ingredients plus my own changes to come up with a recipe that disappeared from everyone’s plates First, I cut the recipe in half to feed my family of five (2 adults, 3 kids) As far as ingredient changes go, I subbed penne for the mostaccioli (since I couldn’t find any), fresh cooked chicken instead of precooked stuff, one cup cheddar cheese instead of two, fat free Greek yogurt instead of sour cream, fat free cottage cheese instead of ricotta, shredded parm instead of grated and topped it with about a half cup of shredded cheddar instead of breadcrumbs I baked it for 25 minutes and then broiled for 5 to get the cheese a little crispy My 2 year old cleaned his entire plate! Recipes like that come around once in a blue moon Thank you for posting This will definitely go into our regular rotation , My family really enjoyed this dinner because it was something different from the usual pasta with meat, cheese and tomato sauce recipes that are common on this site I had the original recipe from TOH and combined a few of the ingredients plus my own changes to come up with a recipe that disappeared from everyone’s plates First, I cut the recipe in half to feed my family of five (2 adults, 3 kids) As far as ingredient changes go, I subbed penne for the mostaccioli (since I couldn’t find any), fresh cooked chicken instead of precooked stuff, one cup cheddar cheese instead of two, fat free Greek yogurt instead of sour cream, fat free cottage cheese instead of ricotta, shredded parm instead of grated and topped it with about a half cup of shredded cheddar instead of breadcrumbs I baked it for 25 minutes and then broiled for 5 to get the cheese a little crispy My 2 year old cleaned his entire plate!
