Chicken Pesto Pasta Salad

Chicken Pesto Pasta Salad

Many thanks to Amanda Charlesworth for this recipe at just 1 point per serving on No Count.  (If you only use 7g of reduced fat pesto, this recipe will be free on No Count.) If tracking, it’s 6sp.

Ingredients (serves 1):

  • 45g dried wholemeal pasta
  • 65g cooked chicken breast, chopped into pieces
  • 10g green pesto (1 point)
  • a tbsp quark
  • fresh basil
  • Italian salad leaves

If you use just 7g of Tesco reduced fat red or green pesto, this meal would be free on No Count.

Method:

  1. Cook and drain the pasta.
  2. Mix the quark, pesto and chicken and mix with the warm pasta.
  3. Use the salad leaves as a base, add the pasta and garnish with basil.

As the pasta and chicken are free on No Count, you could use up to 70g pasta and a whole chicken breast.
