Creamy Chicken Pasta Primavera
Creamy Chicken Pasta Primavera is a delicious one pot dinner! So easy to make and only takes 30 minutes to prepare. You could easily make this gluten free by substituting the noodle.
I love the included veggies too! If you make it 1/3 block reduced fat cream cheese to lessen the calories a bit, it is 8 points plus on Weight Watchers.
Did you know you Can Freeze Cream Cheese? This is a great money saving tip and can easily be used in this recipe!

Tried it tonight, very yummy! Made it with 1/3 reduce fat cream cheese to lessen the calories a bit, still tasted great. With that change it is 8 points plus on WW. 😉
