INGREDIENTS
3 ounces High-Protein Lentil Pasta (84g dry)
1.5 cups Broccoli (136g, cut into florets)
0.75 cup Low-Fat Cottage Cheese (170g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the lentil pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, a pinch of salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Spread evenly on a baking sheet.
Roast the broccoli in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until tender with slightly crisp edges.
In a small bowl, stir the low-fat cottage cheese to achieve a smoother sauce consistency. Season with an additional pinch of salt and pepper if desired.
Plate the drained pasta, then layer with the roasted broccoli. Drizzle the cottage cheese sauce over the top.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, high-protein vegetarian dinner.
