Pesto Turkey Pasta

A meal, from Betty Crocker, so simple and delicious that I had to share. It takes 20 minutes to prepare start to finish.

You will need:

3 cups uncooked bowtie pata

2 cups pre-cooked cubed turkey breast

1/2 cup basil pesto

1/2 cup chopped roasted red bell peppers (in a jar)

parmesan cheese (not pictured)

1. Boil your pasta.

2. Mix cooked pasta, turkey, pesto, and bell peppers until everything is heated through.

3. Sprinkle with parmesan LIBERALLY and mix in thoroughly.

Voila! Easy and yummy!

SOOOOO GOOD!!!

Creamy Berry Smoothie

So, I've been trying to stay away from fattening sweets. But, I still want something to satisfy my sweet tooth. Why not get some nutrition out of it, too? This smoothie is low fat and packed with yummy fruit.

You'll need:

1/2* cup frozen strawberries (unsweetened)

1/4* cup frozen blueberries

1/2 banana

1/4* cup apple juice (no added sugar)

1/4* cup nonfat or low fat milk (you can also use soy milk)

Put it all in a blender and blend until smooth. I find that a Magic Bullet works the best. Pour into a glass and enjoy! Makes one serving.
