Healthy Pasta Recipes
Surprise, surprise!!! Eating pasta is good for you as long as its whole grain and al dente or firm. And as long as you don’t eat the entire pan, laugh out loud. If we put gobs of cream sauce on top with a side of garlic bread and a cannoli for dessert the calories start to add up. The pasta alone is good for your cholesterol and has plenty of fiber. Follow these recipes and you’ll get your fill and be happy too.
