Five ingredient dinner ☺️

Ok this one also ended up getting an extra ingredient that isn’t pictured, black olives. I’m not a fan but the household is and I’m here to please. I would change a couple things if I was just making it for me, kale instead of lettuce and I would add some crispy fried chickpeas on top for some crunch. Ohh and I would have used spicy chicken if I was the o my one eating it. All in all this was very good and I’ll be making it again. #dinnerrecipeideas #easydinnerideas #pastasalad #weeknightdinner
