Creamy Chicken Spinach Mushroom Pasta. Delicious, flavourful, and healthy. This pasta is easy and quick to make which is perfect for dinner or lunch!

My recipe for this creamy chicken spinach mushroom pasta only takes 35 minutes and it is also dairy-free believe it or not!

Creamy Chicken Spinach Mushroom Pasta

It contains spinach, chicken, coconut milk, cashew cream and garlic and a few other ingredients. If you don't like chicken, you can use pork or your protein of choice.

This sauce is pretty versatile and works well with any swaps I would say! My chicken spinach creamy mushroom sauce works really well especially over some rotini pasta because it gets into all those nooks and crannies of the pasta!
