Had a sad day and I was craving pasta, so came up with this! Can definitely cut back on some ingredients/fully cut them out, but I had some things in my fridge I wanted to get rid of (bought before starting my 1200 journey)
Farfelle pasta: 60g (214cal)
Salted butter: 11g (79cal)
Garlic: 4 cloves, 8g (11cal)
Cream cheese: 24g (85cal)
Unsweetened almond milk: A splash (~8cal)
Grated parm: 15g (60 cal)
Lemon juice: half of a lemon
Salt, pepper, parsley, red pepper flakes to taste!
Pasta water to thin out sauce to desired consistency 🫶🏼
Next time, I would use light butter and reduced fat cream cheese, as well as protein pasta, but this is what I had on hand.
I had this with a side of 5 Morningstar farms buffalo wings for 210 calories just to add a little protein 🙂
