Paleo Pasta!

I've been experimenting with various healthy recipes for a while and found one that was awesome!

This is an easy version of paleo pasta, with celery being substituted for penne noodles. (Forgive the generic directions, I've never typed out a recipe before. But it's as easy as making spaghetti, so just use common sense with your measurements).

Ingredients:
1. Celery
2. Chicken breast
3. Spaghetti sauce (make your own recipe, or just use store-bought sauce. I used Kroger's three cheese blend).
4. (Optional) Shredded mozzarella cheese

Bake your chicken breast according to directions on the label. While the chicken is baking, cut your celery into 1 inch pieces. Place the celery into a pot and boil until very soft. Heat up your sauce in a separate pot.

After your chicken breast is cooked, chop it up into small pieces about 1/2 square inches. Combine all the items into a large pot and serve. If you'd like to add a little flavor, sprinkle with some shredded mozzarella cheese.

It tastes delicious, and it's a lot healthier than traditional pasta. I made enough to feed a homeless shelter so I've been eating it for the past few days now and have yet to be tired of it.

If you don't like celery, you will after this. Trust me.
