Creamy Broccoli Pasta Salad
When it’s too hot to eat pasta but you want the pasta. I love this recipe because it is so easy and so good, full of nutritious carbs, fats and protein. I love using lentil pasta because it is protein and fiber rich as well as it doesn’t raise blood sugar as much. This is a perfect meal for your follicular phase and will give you the good energy to fuel you and keep you satiated!
