Casarecce pasta, the twisted scroll-like shape that traps sauce in its curves, carries basil pesto alongside chicken breast in this frozen meal. Each piece holds a bit more pesto than penne or spaghetti would, which is really the point of choosing that shape. Within the range, the pasta choice is the detail that sets it apart from more standard shapes. Rest of the plate stays fairly simple: pasta, chicken, pesto, and the usual frozen-meal moisture that comes with reheating. Heat it straight from the freezer in the microwave.
