Creamy Pesto, Chicken Thigh & Spinach Spaghetti
Grab a pot and pan, because this creamy pasta is ready in no time. You'll pan fry chicken, then coat in a rich pesto sauce. Stir through spinach in for some leafy greens, and finish with Italian hard cheese to serve. Sizzle, stir, done!
You supply: olive oil, pepper, salt, milk, water. The figures below are for the dish cooked as instructed, so they count these rather than what arrives in the box.

Tell me when Creamy Pesto, Chicken Thigh & Spinach Spaghetti changes
Recipes get reformulated and portions shrink without an announcement. We read this page every week anyway.
Every figure above is read from what the brand publishes, and brands change their pages without telling us. If something here does not match this meal as it is sold today, we would rather hear it than print it.
