High Protein Vegetarian Pasta
Prep Time: 5 minutes Cook Time: 10 minutes Serves: 4
12 ounces of chickpea noodle pasta (I like this brand)
half of a 10 ounce bag of frozen edamame
1-2 Tablespoons good quality butter
salt and pepper to taste
hard boiled eggs for serving
Preparation
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package directions. During the last 4 minutes of cooking add the edamame. Drain the pasta and edamame then return to the pot. Add the butter with a generous sprinkle of salt and pepper and toss well. Serve with hard boiled eggs and enjoy.
Notes- This tastes great with freshly grated parmesan cheese as well if you’re feeling like an extra something!
