High-Protein Pasta Makeovers You Need to Try πŸ’ͺ


Hello Reader,

Lately, I’ve been twirling my fork around something new that I think you might like, too.

I've been taste-testing Barilla's chickpea and lentil pastas, and they are legit tasty. Plus, they have just one ingredient, and are high in protein and fiber.

Have you tried them?

This is NOT a sponsored post! I just happen to think these pastas are fantastic for anyone and especially carb-conscious eaters.

Of course, you still need to be mindful of how much you eat.

My favorite makeovers to date:

Mushroom Pasta

This dish is easily customized.

One Pot Alfredo

Baked Ziti

I have not made this yet. But, it's at the top of my to-do list!
