"Creation brings deep satisfaction and fulfillment. We develop ourselves and others when we take unorganized matter into our hands and mold it into something of beauty—and I am not talking about the process of cleaning the rooms of your teenage children." Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Chicken Pesto Linguine



4 Chicken Breasts
13 oz (1 box) Whole Wheat Linguine
3 Tbsp. Olive Oil
2 Cloves Garlic
1 Cup Chopped Mushrooms
8-10 oz Pesto Sauce
1/2 Cup Half & Half

Place chicken breasts in frying pan with 1 cup of water. Put a lid on the pan and cook on medium heat for 10 minutes or until cooked.
Boil water for Linguine, follow directions on the box. When finished, drain water from the pan.
When chicken is fully cooked, remove from pan and place on cutting board. Cut into cubes.
In a larger frying pan, put olive oil and minced garlic into pan on medium heat. Let heat for a couple minutes. Then add linguine, chicken, chopped mushrooms, pesto sauce (add however much you'd like), and half and half.
Let heat through. Serve with french bread.

(I used store bought pesto sauce that came in a 10 ounce jar. You can do homemade pesto, but I like the easy way.)

Servings: 6-8
