Chicken & broccoli alfredo pasta bake

It was cold and snowy today, so I wanted to make some comfort food for dinner. Pasta bakes scream comfort food for me, and yes you can still enjoy a little pasta while living the weight watcher lifestyle. :) This chicken & broccoli alfredo pasta bake was so easy to make and if your anything like me and not a big vegetable eater, a great way to get in some greens! It serves up 6 decent sized portions at only 7 points plus per serving.

Recipe as follows, preheat oven to 350F

• 2 cups (cooked) of a high fiber pasta
• 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
• 2 cups frozen broccoli
• 2/3 cups light alfredo sauce (I used a PC blue menu brand found in Canada)
• 1/4 cup fat free ranch dressing
• 1/4 cup chicken broth
• 2/3 cups light grated cheese
• 1T finely grated parmesan cheese
• 2T bacon bits

Directions Have your chicken cooked and ready to go. I cooked my boneless chicken breasts with a little broth in the crockpot on low for 4 hours, it shreds very well. Also have your pasta cooked by boiling on the stove. Mix all of the above ingredients together in a bowl except the parmesan cheese and bacon bits.

Spread mixture out into a 9x13 sprayed dish and top with parmesan cheese and bacon bits.

Bake in oven for approx. 25 min. Serves 6 at 7pp per serving.
