I really do love pasta. I used to eat it growing up, but my now that I’m engaged to an Italian I eat pasta all the time and I can’t get enough of it. My favorite, as is his, is Fettuccine Alfredo with shrimp and Broccoli. I know what you’re thinking, pasta has a lot of carbs in it, but it’s still one of that main food groups that you have to maintain. Check out my four favorite and amazing pasta dishes.

Low-Cal Asparagus Fettuccine Alfredo- Adding just the right amount of tasty Asparagus can make any pasta your favorite meal. You get your healthy amount of vegetables too.

Whole-Wheat Fettuccine with Basil-Yogurt Sauce- Basil-Yogurt Sauce is a little extra something you can add to this pasta. It’s a little healthier for you too because you’re using whole-wheat noodles.

Orzo with Roasted Garlic-Using Orzo pasta with some garlic will make your mouth water. I just love this pasta so much. Treat yourself.

Shells and Fish- This is a great pasta dish if you’re having guests over. It feeds a lot of people and will leave everyone with full tummies.

If you want a side-dish with that pasta try a fabulous Strawberry-Spinach Salad. You’ll love the taste of the fresh Strawberries!
