Dietitian\u2019s tips:<\/span>
\n> For those watching their carbohydrates: The carbohydrates in pastas can add up quickly so watch your portion sizes! Pair your pasta dish with a nice side salad or substitute traditional noodles with noodles made from different vegetables, such as zucchini or squash.
\n> In this recipe, try using Al Fresco\u2019s chicken sausage as an alternative to boneless, skinless chicken.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
