One Pot Chicken, Broccoli and Corn Pasta
Saturday evening. No dinner plans. See what you can find in the fridge and pantry… and this pasta dish is born! One Pot Chicken, Broccoli and Corn Pasta was the most delicious surprise of combining some fresh chicken and broccoli, frozen summer corn and pantry pasta. The bonus is the creamy cheese sauce and the fact that it is all made in one pot in 30 minutes!
One Pot Chicken, Broccoli and Corn Pasta is going to be your busy school night best friend this fall! I topped it with a little more fresh shredded cheese and some microgreens for crunch and nutrients.
