Digestable Pasta Meal

Okay you think of Spaghetti’s and you remember meat sauce or heavy cream to accompany it. But did you know this is the worst combination for your digestive system. It takes over 4-6 hrs to fully digest protein and another 2-3 hours for complex carbohydrates. No wonder the Italians take a nap after their meals :)

Try this great and simple recipe, inspired by my HANDSOME! Husband. Ingredients
- Whole wheat or white pasta (can use any other grain pasta, your preference, im using white pasta,or my husband might divorce me, he is part Italian)
- 1 bunch of steamed aspargus
- 1 tbsp coconut oil or butter
- Chopped tomatoes
- Chopped cilantro
- Chopped green onions
- Dash of basil, oregano, sea salt, crushed pepper and minced garlic
- Hemp oil or olive oil,(lemon flavor fish oil liquids *best option)
- Parmesan cheese
Directions
- boil water and cook pasta until adente' (not fully cooked, this reduces the glycemic load)
-in the mean time, mix all veggies, oil and spices in a bowl
-melt coconut oil or butter with asparagus
- Drain the pasta from the water and place on a dish and top with Tomato salad & a side of aspargus, and a dash of parmesan cheese

Yummy!

Notes
when cooking any pasta,grains or beans, never add salt when cooking, as it makes it harder to cook and stops the releasing of digestive inhibitors, which is why many people have a hard time digesting grains and beans for that matter.
