Chicken and Bow Tie Pasta
I used 1/2 of the called for amount of cream cheese and the sauce was plenty creamy. I had only plain cream cheese, but lots of green onion I was trying to use up and that was a good combination. I doubled the amount of brocoli, added half when the reciped called for and half when I mixed the pasta and sauce together for some extra crunch in the pasta. I did cook the chicken in broth rather than water as some reviewers suggested. My 9 year old daughter loved this recipe, as did my husband. Unlike some creamy pasta recipes the leftovers heated up very nicely for a second night's dinner. I added a bit of milk when heating and it was as creamy as the original meal. Definitely a keeper recipe for us! Thanks for sharing it!

Penne with Chicken and Asparagus
This is a fast, tasty pasta dish perfect for spring when you want lighter meals. I followed other reviewer's suggestions and added a bit more chicken broth. I also added extra herbs/spices (basil and oregeno, but I suspect that tarragon would be good too) and a few squeezes of lemon juice which complimented the asparagus very well. Thanks for a nice recipe!
