Spinach Alfredo Pasta (with chicken)

Simple. 
That’s the way I like it. Once again I found myself hungry with a scant number of ingredients. Nothing planned for dinner either, but that’s when creativity strikes hardest.
It’s actually kind of exciting.

I had some bags of frozen veggies (spinach, peas, broccoli) + some chicken breasts, pasta, some heavy cream and an onion.
All of that (plus a quarter of piece of turkey kielbasa) = one light and easy angel hair pasta dish.
