My snow day was wonderful, as they always are! I made dinner early this morning so it could sit in the fridge today and soak up flavor. I was in the mood for a baked pasta dish because it would be filling, clean (inspired by Clean Eating magazine’s cover recipe) and it would be done when I got home from school – all I would have to do is cook it! Even though I could have spent ALL day making dinner today, I still went for the easy pasta dish.
As usual, I made a his and a hers side of the dish. I also made enough for leftovers so we could take them in our lunch! Here is the breakdown:
Both
- Extra tomato marinara sauce
- Barilla Pasta Plus both rotini and penne noodles
- zucchini and yellow squash
- ground 99% fat free turkey
- parm.
Her side:
- extra zucchini and squash
- lots of onions!! cooked before being added
- a little fat free feta
His side:
- black olives
- 2% cheddar cheese
- extra pasta
A few pictures of the process…
My bowl with some added artichoke hearts and asparagus!
Maybe I will be back some more baking tomorrow! Depends on the snow!
