Sunday Supper - Fake Chicken-Pot-Pie Pasta

I'm a sucker for a chicken-pot-pie and when I saw this quick and easy recipe with pasta I had to try it. I decided to go meatless and used Quorn's Meatless & Soy-Free Naked Chik'n Cutlets. It came out really well, but you could always use real chicken per the recipe.

1. In a large pot of boiling, salted water cook 3/4 pound whole wheat pasta 3 minutes less than you are supposed to. Add 1/3 pound green beans, trimmed and cut into 1 inch pieces. Cook for 3 minutes then strain and let cool.

2. In a large saucepan, melt 3 tbs unsalted butter. Add 1 small diced onion, 2 stalks thinly sliced celery, and 2 carrots diced medium. Add 1/4 cup flour and gradually incorporate 2 cups low sodium chicken broth. Add 2 cups fake or real chicken and season with salt and pepper.

3. Stir in pasta and beans and serve.
