Garlic Chicken Pasta

We ate this tonight. So yummy!

Ingredients
2 cups cooked chicken, cut into bite sized pieces 2
2 cloves garlic
1-2 Tablespoons olive oil
2 1/2 cups whole wheat pasta
3 cups milk 3 Tablespoons butter
grated parmesan cheese
3 ounces cream cheese

Directions
1. In a skillet, saute chicken and garlic in olive oil.  Turn to low heat to keep warm.
2. Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a big pot with the milk, butter and salt.  Stir almost constantly, especially as the pasta is becoming tender and the milk is beginning to boil.  Cook and stir over medium heat until pasta is tender and the starch from the pasta has thickened the milk, creating a creamy sauce.
3. Stir in cheeses.
4. Stir in the chicken and serve immediately.
