Mushroom and Broccoli Protein Pasta

When people think that when you are on a diet or starting a new lifestyle, you have to give up carbs and that is false.

With WW you can enjoy so many things especially a bowl of pasta.

This entire bowl is 8WW, 369 calories and 25 grams of protein. 

Here is what you need:

• Barilla protein plus rotini pasta
• Chicken bouillon 
• Kettle & Fire chicken bone broth, click HERE for 20% off discount.
• Roasted broccoli
• Sauteed mushrooms
• Fresh basil
• Grated parmesan
• Dak’s Spices Green Zest seasoning (optional)
• Minced garlic
• Salt
• Pepper
• Crushed red pepper (optional)

This is a great pasta; it has extra protein and tastes amazing.

I LOVE adding this to my water when making pasta dished or potatoes. It adds GREAT flavor. 

Kettle & Fire is the BEST chicken bone broth on the market. If you would like to try it out, click HERE and use code CHEFALLIESKITCHEN for a discount.

My personal favorite veggies are mushrooms and broccoli in pasta dishes. I like to always have frozen broccoli on hand to make for an easy roasted broccoli. Put the broccoli in the microwave as directed on the package then roast it in the oven at 425 until golden.

If you do not have Dak’s Spices Green Zest, you can use some Italian seasoning or seasonings of your choice. If you would like to try it out, click HERE and use code CHEFALLLIE. Season to taste with salt and pepper throughout the entire dish. 

Grated parmesan and fresh basil are a necessary garnish on all pasta dishes. 

Here is how to make it:

1. Roast the broccoli in the oven at 425 with seasonings of choice, set aside when done.
2. Sauté the mushrooms with seasonings of choice then set aside.
3. While roasting and sautéing, get the pot of water onto the stove top for the pasta. 
4. Add the chicken bouillon to the water
5. Once boiling add the pasta.
6. Strain once cooked and set aside.
7. In the mushroom sauté pan, add both of the veggies back in. 
8. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
9. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30-40 seconds.
10. Add the pasta.
11. Pour the Kettle & Fire chicken bone broth.
12. Sprinkle some parmesan cheese and toss quickly.
13. Put into a bowl and garnish with basil.
