INGREDIENTS
1.5 oz Whole Wheat Pasta (42g)
2 large Soft-Poached Eggs (approx. 100g total)
1/2 cup Sweet Corn Kernels (82g)
1 serving Avocado Pesto (approx. 50g)
1/4 cup Cooked Chickpeas (60g)
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (60g)
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta until al dente, then drain and set aside.
In a small saucepan, gently warm the sweet corn kernels over medium heat for 2-3 minutes.
Prepare the avocado pesto by blending ripe avocado with fresh basil, garlic, a squeeze of lemon juice, and just a drizzle of olive oil until smooth. Adjust seasoning as needed.
Meanwhile, poach the eggs in simmering water with a small dash of vinegar for about 3-4 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta, warmed corn, chickpeas, and avocado pesto, stirring gently to coat evenly.
Plate the pasta mixture and top with the soft-poached eggs. Add a dollop of nonfat Greek yogurt on the side or on top for extra creaminess.
Finish with a sprinkle of salt, pepper, and fresh basil leaves if desired, then serve immediately.
