Ingredients

  • 1 box chickpea noodles 8 oz, uncooked, Banza pasta
  • 1 lb grilled chicken tenderloin cooked, cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 1 jar pasta sauce 24 oz, tomato & basil flavor
  • ¼ cup parmesan cheese 30g
  • ¼ cup panko 14g
  • ½ cup reduced-fat mozzarella cheese shredded (56 g)
  • ½ cup skim-fat ricotta 124 g
  • Optional toppings: fresh basil red pepper flakes

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Heat a large pot of water over the stove. Prepare noodles according to package.
  • Grease a casserole dish and set aside.
  • Strain pasta noodles.
  • Add noodles to a large bowl. Add pasta sauce and chicken. Stir until combined.
  • Pour ½ the pasta mixture into the casserole dish.
  • Using a spoon, scoop dollops of ricotta onto the pasta.
  • Finish adding the pasta mixture.
  • Top with mozzarella cheese.
  • In a small bowl, mix parmesan and panko together.
  • Sprinkle the parmesan & panko mixture on top of the casserole.
  • Spritz with cooking spray to help brown the panko in the oven.
  • Bake at 350 for about 15 mins.
  • Sprinkle with fresh, chopped basil. Add additional red pepper flakes.

Notes

  • 1 serving of the recipe is about 293 grams. 
  • I used 8 oz Chickpea pasta. You can substitute for regular pasta but double check the box of pasta you’re using so you use the correct amount of sauce so it’s not dry.
  • If you’re needing to cook chicken for this recipe, 1.5 lbs of raw chicken will make about 1 lbs cooked chicken.
  • I use a 8 x 13 dish.
