A quick and delicious creamy pasta with a few tweaks to keep it healthy. Whole wheat pasta adds fibre and using reduced-fat crème fraîche keeps the calories down. You can add chopped cooked chicken or diced ham at the same time as the crème fraîche if you like. Add a splash of water and heat through until hot throughout.

Tips:

  • Don't overcook the pasta: Cook the pasta according to the package directions, or until it is al dente (still slightly firm to the bite).

  • Garnish with fresh herbs and Parmesan cheese: This will add a pop of flavor and color to your dish.
  • Serve immediately: Pasta dishes are best served immediately after they are made. This will prevent the pasta from getting soggy.
