Protein Packed Thai Pasta Salad is a healthy 20 minutes dinner recipe. It packs in over 18 g of protein and is still filled with veggies! This really is one of the recipes that I can’t just wait to dig.
This grain free stone of a noodle can include 14 g of protein to each bowl. Additionally, it cooks up perfectly al dente and gets the texture of standard pasta. The benefit is that all of that protein is going to keep you full for long periods of time.
Subsequently fresh veggies include that required crispy crunch. The carrots, cabbage, carrots, and scallions are all inserted to the salad uncooked that means less cooking time and a super speedy dinner that’s prepared in half an hour or less.
Subsequently the sauce swoops in and contrasts the veggies and pasta together. It’s a one-two pinch of taste because of ingredients such as peanut butter, orange juice, garlic, and maple syrup for a small sweetness.
