PHENOMENAL CHICKEN AND PASTA IN CREAMY PESTO SAUCE
An extremely delicious meal: the crunch of pine nuts and the tang of sun-dried tomatoes combine with chicken and pasta in a heavenly pesto cream sauce. Be sure to taste and salt before serving, because depending on what kind of chicken broth you use, the dish may require no salt at all or may be extremely under-salted.

PINE NUT AND CHICKEN PASTA
