3
Add pasta; stir. Simmer, stirring frequently, over medium-low heat 14 to 15 min. or until pasta is cooked to desired doneness. Add remaining ingredients; cook and stir 2 to 3 min. or until cream cheese spread is completely melted and mixture is well blended. Remove from heat.

Slice chicken. Serve over pasta mixture.
Kitchen Tips
Tip 1
Food Facts
Slowly bringing the milk just to simmer is the key to preventing the milk from boiling over the side of the pan as it cooks. Also, to help prevent the milk from scorching on the bottom of the pan, be sure to constantly stir the pasta mixture with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula as it cooks with the sauce.
Tip 2
Size Wise
Plan ahead! Eating in moderation involves planning ahead to make sure healthy foods are readily available. Make sure to be intentional in your food planning and lifestyle patterns so that you can also fit in some of your family’s favorites
