Re: whats your favorite chicken and pasta meal
You mean, chicken with pasta in the same dish? Or Chicken meal, and a pasta meal?
I usually only eat one or the other. If I eat chicken, I make veggies, if I eat pasta, that's all I eat lol
Can't help ya out sorry :(
Although, my mom used to take left over chicken, cut into cubes and mix it together with a can of cream of mushroom soup, and rice and left over veggies, I am sure you can do the same with a shell pasta or elbow pasta. No?

Re: whats your favorite chicken and pasta meal
If you want an easy meal - check out the Campbell's condensed soup can. Each one has four recipes and I have been making them for the past two weeks. Most of them are one skillet meals and they are YUMMY!
