Answer 1

pasta is good for you , But you should not overdo it. you need a balance of different foods to supply their various nutrients.

Here's one of my favorite pasta recipes that's loaded with protein which helps with energy and repair of the body.

High protein spaghetti or macaroni

1 c. [4 ounces] dry, spaghetti or macaroni
1 tsp. sea salt
1 tbsp. safflower oil
1 c. cottage cheese with chives
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
½ teaspoon pepper or cayenne pepper
1 tsp. Sea salt

Put spaghetti or macaroni into a large pan of boiling water. Add 1
Tsp. Sea salt. Boil at a fast boil until tender about ten minutes. Pour into a straining dish and when most of the water is drained, pour into a large skillet. Add safflower oil mix well and heat. Add cottage cheese, garlic, sea salt and pepper, mixing well until very hot and cottage cheese becomes a little stringy. Serve very hot.

Can be garnished with chopped parsley.

Beans And tuna are very healthy foods to eat also. I've enclosed another recipe for a terrific bean soup.
