Even though this comfort food classic is extremely quick and easy to make doesn’t mean it’s not extraordinary because it really is!!! Packed with powerful, dreamy flavors and lots of veggies. For the sauce, I used a jar of light Alfredo sauce. Each huge portion has 323 calories, 9 grams of fat and 8 Weight Watchers POINTS PLUS. It’s one of my favorites and my husband’s too. I hope you enjoy it!

1 cup red sweet pepper, chopped

1. Cook the spaghetti according to package directions, except omit the cooking oil and salt. Cook al dente, about 5 minutes. Drain well and rinse in cold water. Set aside.
2. Meanwhile, in a microwave safe bowl, add the zucchini, onions and red bell pepper. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, until onions are soft.
3. In a large nonstick pan, add cooked vegetables, Alfredo sauce, chicken, pasta, Parmesan cheese, milk and season with a little black pepper. Mix together well over med-high heat. Turn heat down and simmer, stirring often for about 5-8 minutes, until heated through.
