My fave way to eat my greens? in pasta 😉 Get your fix with my Pesto, Peas + Brussels Sprouts Pasta tossed in Palmini hearts of palm pasta or your fave noodle variety.
We’re always looking for pasta substitutes (mainly because I crave it day + night) so when I saw @f_factor shared these “noodles” with only 20 cals + 2 net carbs per serving I freaked and ordered from @amazon asap!
Their texture is somewhere between zucchini and spaghetti squash noodles but they have less of their own flava, which make them perfect for adopting the flavor of any sauce! try them with my recipe below + have dinner on the table in 10 minutes. Srsly!
