      Enchilada Pasta Bake
      4-1/2 cups medium pasta shells, uncooked
      2 tsp oil
      1 yellow onion, chopped
      1 red pepper, chopped
      1 pkg taco seasoning mix (or use your own)
      14.5 oz-can no-salt-added diced tomatoes, undrained
      2 cups grilled chicken breast, cut in strips
      15 oz-can no-salt-added black beans, rinsed
      3 green onions, thinly sliced, divided
      1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro, divided
      8 oz-pkg Mexican style shredded four cheese blend
      1 tbs cream cheese
      Heat oven to 375°F.
      Cook pasta as directed on package, omitting salt. Meanwhile, heat oil in large nonstick skillet on medium heat. Add yellow onions and peppers. Cook 3 to 5 min or until crisp-tender, stirring frequently. Stir in seasoning mix and tomatoes. Cook and stir 3 min. Add chicken, beans and half each of the green onions and cilantro. Mix well. Remove from heat.
      Drain pasta. Add to chicken mixture. Mix lightly. Pour into 13×9-inch baking dish. Top with cheese.
