INGREDIENTS
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta
4 slices Turkey Bacon
1/4 cup Low-Fat Cottage Cheese
1 Egg White
1 tablespoon Grated Parmesan Cheese
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Fresh Basil and Parsley (chopped)
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and add the turkey bacon. Cook the bacon until it becomes crispy, then remove it from the skillet and crumble it into bite-sized pieces.
In a blender or using a whisk, combine the low-fat cottage cheese, egg white, and grated Parmesan cheese until smooth, forming a creamy sauce.
Return the pasta to the pot or a mixing bowl and pour the creamy sauce over it. Toss to evenly coat the pasta.
Gently fold in the crispy turkey bacon and freshly chopped basil and parsley.
Serve immediately, enjoying the blend of warm creamy pasta with the savory crunch of turkey bacon and the fresh scent of herbs.
