I have been trying to just cook and eat healthier lately, so it motivates me to do so when I can get creative. This one is something that I had certain ingredients in my fridge, so just decided to try to put them together in a way that worked. We liked it a lot, so I decided it was blog-worthy.
Chop up 2 pieces of bacon and 2 cloves of garlic. Saute' quickly in a pan, stirring continuously until bacon is cooked.
Remove bacon and garlic from pan.
Add 2 chicken breasts, sliced, and saute' until browned.
Stir in one can black beans and 1/2 can no salt tomatoes.
Sprinkle in 1/2 packet fajita seasoning.
Remove chicken, black beans and tomatoes from pan, but leave pan drippings.
Add in 1 cup no salt chicken or beef broth and the other 1/2 can of tomatoes.
Bring to a boil, and add box of Red Penne' Pasta (or other pasta).
Add back in the bacon and garlic.
Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until pasta is al dente'.
Place pasta on the plate first, covered by the chicken and black bean and tomato mixture.
Cover with shredded Monterey Jack and your favorite Salsa Verde.
Add a spoonful of sour cream on top (or to keep it healthy, a spoonful of plain yogurt works too)
