Chicken+Luncheon Meat+Veg Pasta

i was very hungry as i've not eaten the whole day... hence for dinner, i made myself pasta again... yes again... with watever ingredients i could find at home!



Ingredients:
3 full tbsp of Mushroom and Herb pasta sauce
2 medium size carrots - diced *
1 handful of long beans - chopped *
1/2 can of luncheon meat - diced *
1 small chicken breast - sliced (marinated with bit of salt, soya sauce, sugar, cornflour and sesame oil) *
2 cup of wholemeal spiral pasta *
Garlic - chopped *
20g of butter *

* amount is up to you to change, depending on your preference!

Method:
1. Boil the pasta with 1 tsp of salt for about 8mins and drain under cold water
2. Melt the butter and sauteed the garlic till abit brown
3. Add the chicken and luncheon meat and cook for about 2mins
4. Add in the carrots and long beans and cook til carrot is soft (may add abit of water and cover the wok to simmer)
5. Add in the drained pasta and pasta sauce and mixed well for about a min or 2 and serve hot.

p.s the flavour is enough in my opinion... hence i did not add any salt (apart from boiling pasta and marinating chicken) of soya sauce while cooking

Mushroom, Bacon + Snapper Pasta

i was out grocery shopping today when i came across this wholemeal spiral pasta and suddenly, i feel like cooking it for dinner... considered healthy pasta i suppose... =P



Ingredients:
6 tbsp of Mushroom and Herb pasta sauce
3 tbsp of bacon bits (more if you like bacon)
1 handful sliced button mushroom
1 snapper fillet - diced
1 cup of wholemeal spiral pasta
Garlic - chopped
10g of butter

Method:
1. Boil the pasta with 1 tsp of salt for about 8mins and drain under cold water
2. Melt the butter and sauteed the bacon bits till abit brown
3. Push the bacon aside and tilt the pan so that the butter/oil drains out
4. Sauteed the garlic and when turn slightly brown add in the other ingredients
5. When the snapper is about cooked, add in the drained pasta
6. Add in the pasta sauce and stir for about a min or 2 and serve hot.


p.s you can skip the pasta sauce actually.... notice that except for the boiling of the pasta with abit salt, i did not add any more of it or other condiments... so the pasta sauce is actually to flavour it....
