Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups Land O Lakes® Heavy Whipping Cream
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 8 ounces uncooked dried cavatappi
  • 10 ounces diced cooked chicken (about 2 cups)
  • 1 bag fresh spinach (5 ounces, large stems removed)
  • 1/3 cup chopped drained oil-packed sundried tomatoes
  • 8 ounces Land O Lakes® Creamy Italian Blend Cheese Chunk shredded (about 2 cups)
  • 2 ounces Land O Lakes® Aged Italian Blend Fine Cut Shredded Cheese (about 1/2 cup)

Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. Combine the chicken broth, whipping cream, onion powder, garlic salt, and Italian seasoning in a 12-inch skillet; stir to blend.
  2. Cook over medium-high heat for 3-5 minutes or until the mixture begins to simmer.
  3. Add the uncooked cavatappi; cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, for about 10-15 minutes, or until the pasta is al dente.
  4. Stir in the diced chicken, fresh spinach, and sundried tomatoes. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the spinach is wilted.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in the cheeses until well combined and melted. Serve hot, with additional Aged Italian Blend cheese on the side if desired.

Notes

For an extra touch, consider garnishing with fresh herbs like basil or parsley. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently with a splash of broth or cream.
