Method:

-In a large saute pan (i don't have one large enough so I use my stock pot) cook down asparagus first (2-4 min) then add in the spinach and salt.

-Once the spinach is cooked down, add in the shredded chicken and season again

-Add the cooked pasta and lemon juice into the cooked veg/chicken mix

-continue cooking until the lemon juice is nearly gone. Add in a few knobs of butter and mix

Serve hot! Jason likes to add shredded Parmesan cheese on top! YUM!
