Wednesday Night Recipe

Simple Pasta Primavera with Grilled Chicken (serves 3-4)
2 breasts of leftover grilled chicken from Meal #1
1/4 cup Olive Oil
6 cloves of garlic, minced
1 med. zucchini, washed and cubed
1 bag of frozen broccoli & cauliflower (steam-in-bag kind)
1 lb. pasta (angel hair preferred, but any kind will do)
Parmesan cheese

1) Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Salt. Cook the pasta until al dente, drain.
2) Meanwhile, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until it just starts to turn lightly golden.
3) Add the zucchini and saute for 3-4 minutes, until zucchini is tender.
4) While the vegetables are sauteing, microwave the frozen veggies, following the instructions on the bag (it should take about 5 minutes). Add the broccoli & cauliflower to the garlic/zucchini mixture when done. Toss with the pasta, and top with plenty of cheese!
