I first threw this salad together a few years ago when I was scrambling to get a luncheon planned after I had my third baby. I needed a quick salad for a side dish and a pesto pasta salad came
A marriage of traditional chicken Florentine with pasta and basil pesto. Sliced sauteed chicken breasts with spinach, garlic, white wine, cream, pesto, and pasta.
This lighter version of an Italian favorite loses some of the fat but none of the taste. We recommend rice-shaped orzo pasta with this saucy chicken entree, but you can serve spaghetti or angel hair pasta instead.
