Whole Wheat Pasta

I love pasta. It is probably my favorite food, comfort or any other type. When whole wheat products became the rage, I did purchase and make it. However, I really did not care for it that much. I did not love the consistency of the  whole wheat pasta.  With that being said I went back to regular pasta. Now my daughter is all about the whole wheat, I have made her two dinners with whole wheat pasta. The first night was baked chicken tenderloins, steamed veggies, whole wheat spaghetti with pesto sauce.  She liked it very much. last night I made figure friendly turkey goulash with whole wheat rotini pasta. I also bulked up the goulash with a raw stir fried vegetable mix that I purchased at Trader Joe’s. She really enjoyed it. I used low sodium chicken stock and low fat sour cream. I did add a little mediera wine. It gives it a depth of flavor. I also enjoyed the goulash. I fnd the whole wheat pasta does not fill me up as much as the regular pasta which ideally it really should. As long as it works for her. The recipe for the turkey goulash with whole wheat pasta is posted on  the bonappetitmom turkey recipes page. I like my goulash with a little heat so I add hot sauce to mine. Stay safe my fans and Bon Appetit.
