--Cook pasta as directed and then drain by scooping out and set aside. Cook your chopped spinach in the boiling water for about 1 minute and then drain it in a fine strainer and rinse it in cold water to stop the cooking. **Spinach can also be just put in the microwave in a save dish covered and cooked for 1 minute on high and then rinsed and drained. No extra water is necessary.**--In a blender, blend the garlic, milk and cottage cheese until smooth. Then add the parmesan, salt, pepper and basil. ***Spinach can also be mixed in the blender if desired, but it will make your final product look a lime green color and you won't see the bits of spinach.***--Add your creamy spice mix, spinach, pasta, chicken and roasted peppers together in one pot and gently mix until blended. Heat if necessary.--Makes 6 servings of 1 C each.--Enjoy!!Number of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user RUMBAMEL.
