The chicken looks like garlic bread in the thumbnail😂😂

ok before you complain about it not being vegan. just use vegan cheese instead of dairy. and instead of chicken use some kind of other food. like your favorite veggie. (I would probably use bell peppers) and im not sure if pasta is vegan or not but im sure there are some that are. so use those instead. there its vegan (I think) so please stop complaining its not vegan and make it vegan yourself or at least be nice.

Did this at the fire hall last night and it came out perfect ! Thanks so much for the simple yet flavourful recipe (added BBQ' sausage and cayenne pepper for some heat)

I actually made this (but I seasoned the chicken and didn't use walnuts due to allergies) and it's really good!

I just got one of those huge Costco bags of spinach that was left over from a party my mom was throwing. I have a food processor and most of the ingredients, so I am making this and freezing it for later! Thanks, Tasty/Buzzfeed!

Looks good! Does it make a difference if you remove the walnuts when processing. for some one whose allergic to nuts
