Savor a delightful plate of whole wheat pasta tossed with tender, juicy chicken breast, enveloped in a light, creamy pesto sauce that’s enriched with a dollop of nonfat Greek yogurt.

INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 tablespoon Basil Pesto
2 tablespoons Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup Cherry Tomatoes
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast lightly with salt and pepper, then grill or pan-sear it over medium heat until thoroughly cooked. Allow it to rest briefly before slicing into bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, blend the basil pesto with nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta, sliced chicken breast, and pesto yogurt sauce. Gently toss until the pasta is evenly coated.
Add the fresh cherry tomatoes to the mixture and give one final toss. Serve warm and enjoy a balanced mix of flavors.
