Beef Bolognese with High-Protein Grain Pasta
Ingredients:
- Healthy Scoops Bolognese sauce
- High-protein grain pasta (such as chickpea pasta, lentil pasta, or quinoa pasta)
- Grated Parmesan cheese
- Fresh basil leaves
- Olive oil
Instructions:
- Cook the Pasta:
- Cook the high-protein grain pasta according to the package instructions. These types of pasta typically cook faster than traditional pasta, so keep an eye on them to avoid overcooking.
- Prepare the Bolognese Sauce:
- While the pasta is cooking, heat the Bolognese sauce in a separate pot over medium heat until it is warmed through.
- Combine Pasta and Sauce:
- Once the pasta is cooked, drain it and return it to the pot. Add a drizzle of olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Pour the heated Bolognese sauce over the pasta and toss to combine thoroughly.
- Serve:
- Divide the pasta among serving plates.
- Top each serving with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh basil leaves.
Now enjoy a delicious, high-protein meal.
Using high-protein grain pasta like chickpea, lentil, or quinoa pasta not only boosts the protein content of the dish but also adds a slightly different texture and flavor, complementing the rich Bolognese sauce perfectly.
