Whole Wheat Pasta Recipe Indian Style | Masala Pasta Recipe

I like pasta the most. But skipped it as it is made of all purpose flour. But I never forget to buy a pack of whole grain pasta, whenever I see it in supermarkets. In India you can get 2 main brands, Del Monte and Bionatura. Both are good in taste.

Whole wheat macaronis and whole wheat fusilli are easy to cook and taste better when cooked. Penne would be slightly thick and would be hard to chew.

I made this using more vegetables. You can have this as a breakfast or dinner. It is rich in fiber. It is diabetic friendly. You can include it in your weight loss diet. It is one of the tasty dishes I included in my PCOD diet.

When I was working, I used to cook the pasta in batches in weekends. I would put it in an air right container and refrigerated until 5 days. I would be easy for making a quick breakfast or dinner. Something went healthy instead of buying at restaurants. You can also try like that to make it quicker in working days.
