Oh, mamma mia, do we love a hearty and delicious pasta. Unfortunately, all too often a pasta dinner is a diet-derailing trap that we all fall into. In an effort to save all of us from this tasty trap, we’ve created this one-of-a-kind Artichoke and Spinach Chicken Pasta recipe!
If you’re a new rider onboard the artichoke express, we simply can’t express to you how much we love them. They’re both delicious and nutritious and can help spruce up a boring, old recipe in no time at all!

To whip up this yummy Artichoke & Spinach Chicken Pasta recipe, you’ll need to pick up a few ingredients from both your local grocery store and stock up on Nutrisystem® Artichoke and Spinach Stuffed Chicken Breast here > While you’re at the supermarket, grab whole wheat pasta, spinach, artichokes, cream cheese and black pepper. Then while you’re browsing our website, order some of our tasty Artichoke and Spinach Stuffed Chicken Breast (and we suggest grabbing more than one so you’re ready to whip up this recipe again!).
Cook the pasta according to the package directions and to your personal taste. After the pasta is ready, put the pot back on the stovetop and set it to medium heat. Toss in the spinach, artichoke and cream cheese. Stir the pot until the cream cheese has melted and is well incorporated. Check to see if the spinach has wilted and once it is, sprinkle with black pepper. Top off the pasta with your stuffed chicken and your dinner is ready!
