It’s good, healthy and puts you in a good mood. Eating pasta is one of life’s pleasures and here’s how to stay in fit without sacrificing taste.
Perfect portioning – The slogan could be: “vegetables with pasta”. Nutritionists suggest satisfying both your taste buds and your eyes by adding copious amounts of vegetables to recipes: they add a colourful touch, while being rich in fibre and antioxidants.
Tricking the eyes – Chopping vegetables coarsely is another useful ploy to give more volume to dishes, which will appear richer.
Attention to cooking – Of course, the lightness of a dish also depends on how the sauce is cooked. Steam the vegetables without fat, add raw oil and season with herbs and spices, which are good allies of taste and allow you to reduce your salt intake.
