Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 roasted chicken breasts, sliced or chopped
  • 1 box protein pasta
  • 2 cups spaghetti sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 cups roasted broccoli
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil

Equipment

  • large skillet
  • large pot
  • strainer

Method
 

  1. Cook the pasta: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the protein pasta according to the package directions. Drain and set aside.
  2. Warm the chicken: Add avocado oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Add the roasted chicken breast and warm for 2 to 3 minutes.
  3. Add the sauce: Pour in the spaghetti sauce. Stir in the garlic powder. Let the sauce simmer for 3 to 5 minutes.
  4. Add the pasta: Add the cooked protein pasta to the skillet. Stir until the pasta is fully coated in sauce.
  5. Add broccoli: Stir in the roasted broccoli. Mix gently so the broccoli stays in bite-sized pieces.
  6. Melt the cheese: Sprinkle mozzarella over the pasta. Cover the skillet for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the cheese melts.
  7. Serve warm: Scoop into bowls and serve hot. Add Parmesan, basil, or red pepper flakes if desired.
