Broccoli Slaw "Pasta"

I’m currently on day 5 of the 17 day diet (p.s. I’m down 5.2 pounds already; I’ll review the diet when I’m done!)  Check out the diet plan here.

Today, I wanted pasta, unfortunately carbs are not allowed on the first cycle, so I improvised.

I did a little research and grocery shopping and actually used broccoli slaw as “noodles” By no means did this taste like something you would get at an Italian restaurant, but in a craving pinch, it’ll do, and boy was it easy.

 

 

Here’s the recipe:

Broccoli Slaw “Pasta”

-I bag broccoli slaw (I used Wal-Mart brand)

-Your favorite marina sauce

-Fat free parmesan cheese

-Olive oil

-Onion (optional)

-Green pepper (optional)

Bring water to a boil, add bag of broccoli slaw, and boil about 10 minutes or until tender.

Drain broccoli slaw.

In a small pan, heat 1 tbsp olive oil, sauté chopped onion and green pepper until soft.

Combine broccoli slaw, optional veggies, and marinara sauce, top with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese and enjoy!
