Notes
Adapt this recipe however you wish, as long as you stick to the all-white and low-fat rules
Leave out the poultry if you are vegetarian
Use any pasta you like such as macaroni, penne, fettuccine etc
Add some white beans if you like, or some cauliflower to make it more nutritious
Why not double up the recipe, so you can have this for salad tomorrow as well?
