Creamy Chicken & Mushroom Pasta

I love this dish-It has all the flavours of a comforting chicken, mushroom & pasta without the creamy calories!

Why it’s good for you

Mushrooms are one of the few food sources of Vitamin D which is important to help our bodies absorb calcium for strong bones!

Yoghurt is good for our gut, a great source of protein & calcium and a healthy substitute for sour cream.

With both yoghurt & chicken, this meal comes in at over 37g protein per serve, which is huge and about 50% of most people’s daily protein needs.

Making your own sauce means it’s far less salt & therefore better for us than packet supermarket mixes.


Notes

  1. If you don’t have fresh parsley or thyme, use dried herbs. Oregano would taste delish too, or simple use 2 tsp dried Italian herbs

  2. Gluten Free: use GF pasta
