This pasta, made with green vegetables, chicken, and zucchini, is a feast for the senses. Not only is it visually striking with its vibrant color, but it's also packed with nutrients. Iron, potassium, B vitamins, and fiber can all be found in green vegetables, and they're also low in calories. The addition of coconut milk gives it an exotic, Thai-inspired aroma.
