CHICKEN PESTO PENNE
We had a wonderful pasta dish at a local restaurant and I have spent time recreating and (blush blush) I think improving on it. This is not low fat, but it is nice for a once in a while treat. If you want to indulge even more, perhaps for company, (and make it taste even better) use full fat cream instead of the half and half! I use bought, jarred pesto but homemade would be even better. I hope you enjoy it!

CHICKEN PESTO MUSHROOM TORTELLINI
This dish used to be served at a gourmet restaurant (Parkway 600) in Kansas City. I don't make each part from scratch like they did but mine is just as yummy. (I don't know the ounces for the ingredients, this made me enter something. It's the large jar of mushrooms & the pasta & pesto only come in one size.)
