Creamy Chicken Primavera Pasta Recipe

How many of you buy those Knorr pasta sides and like them? We buy them pretty regularly, especially when they’re on sale. I like how easy they are to prepare and they only take a few minutes to make. During our busy weeknights, it’s nice to make them and serve them along our main dish and veggies.

Recently I noticed a recipe on the back of the Knorr Pasta Sides Creamy Chicken Flavor and decided to make the recipe for my family. They absolutely LOVED it, so I thought I would share the recipe with all of you. Matter of fact, the family has requested that I make it again next week.
