*Pour sauce over pasta and toss to coat.
***This recipe is a take on Eenie Meenie Fettuccine, which can be found in LooneySpoons by Janet and Greta Podleski. That version calls for tuna, sour cream, and basil instead of the chicken, yogurt, and Italian seasoning. I had a rotisserie chicken left over and I didn't have any sour cream or basil. I improvised and it was still yummy!
