Turkey and Herb Pasta bake
Turkey and Herb Pasta Bake
This recipe is super good if you want pasta
without all the calories and high in protein. I have been craving pasta lately,
and was slightly disheartened coming to terms with not being able to eat it,
only because I’m a health nut and want to reach personal goals. Those goals
most certainly do not involve pasta:(
Sooo.. Slim Pasta, I don’t know if you’ve
heard the slim pasta craze, and personally I’m not really a fan. The first
time I made it, the bin ended up taking most of it! So I decided to make a bake, full of turkey mice and flavour, to help hide the fact it really tastes like bland noodles. After making this and eating it, I’m well impressed
it’s not too bad.
Most of my recipes are in the healthy category, so don’t eat this thinking it actually tastes like pasta, its more like noodles. Give it a go and let me know what you think...It does tastes pretty :)If you cook anything with fresh herbs, its amazing how good things taste!
