One of the best new recipes I have done in a while, loved this!
2 zucchinis, spiralized (you can use a spaghetti squash and add 1/2 zucchini, diced)
1 yellow squash, diced
1 lb. asparagus, chopped into 2 inch pieces
1 red bell pepper, diced
1/2 cup, carrots, chopped
1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced (I used cremini)
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
2 chicken breasts, grilled and chopped into bite sized pieces (if you are using shrimp 1/2 lb. per adult grilled or broiled until pink)
1/4 cup sundried tomato, chopped (optional - my kids don't love these)
3/4 cup ricotta cheese
2 garlic cloves, smashed/chopped
1/2 sweet onion, diced
10 oz. frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained WELL
1/2 cup shredded parmesan (optional)
1 stem fresh basil leaves, washed & chopped
olive oil
pepper
Chop all the veggies and set them aside. Mix the ricotta cheese with the drained spinach and set aside. Grab your BIGGEST sautΓ© pan and coat the bottom with olive oil, a couple tablespoons, turn to medium heat. Add the garlic, onion, peppers and allow this to cook slowly for about 5 minutes. Then add mushrooms, carrots, asparagus, squash, sundried tomatoes, spiraled zucchini and chicken, cook for about 5-7 minutes, until softened, tossing to combine. Add the ricotta mixture and stir to coat while cooking, finally add fresh basil and fresh tomatoes and continue to cook for 2 minutes while tossing. Sprinkle with parmesan and pepper and serve!
