Tuscan Chicken Pasta

What do we all really need during this time of year? Okay, well there are lots of things, I'm sure, but when it comes to dinner, I need something quick AND delicious. This meal is both of those things, and pretty healthy, too! It may just help to balance out all the wonderful holiday treats!!! :)

Tuscan Chicken Pasta

2 oz penne

2 chicken breasts

Salt and pepper

1 tsp olive oil

1 clove garlic, crushed

1/2 tsp dried rosemary

1 cup cannellini beans, rinsed

2 TBSP roasted red pepper, diced

4 cups baby spinach

2 TBSP grated parmesan

Cook the pasta according to package directions. While pasta is boiling, season the chicken with salt and pepper. Cook chicken in skillet; set aside. Add oil, garlic, rosemary, beans, red pepper, and spinach to skillet. Cook, turning frequently, until spinach wilts.

Slice the chicken and drain pasta. Toss with bean/spinach mixture. Top with parmesan.
