This low-carb tomato and garlic pasta combines simple ingredients in one pot for rich, creamy comfort food that’s full of warm, savory flavors and nutrients.  What can I expect?  The average pasta dish is full of refined carbs and sugar but not this recipe! Instead, we combine low-carb mung bean pasta with homemade tomato sauce, cheese, and fresh herbs. As a result, it’s full of fiber, and nutrients, and is completely free from refined sugar. Made in a single pot in just 30 minutes, it’s the perfect family-friendly recipe that doubles as a convenient meal prep option!  Is One Pot Tomato and Garlic Pasta Healthy?  Let’s look at the main ingredients:  Cherry tomatoes  Olive oil  Garlic Coconut milk Parmassan  Noodles Olive oil, garlic, cherry tomatoes, and coconut milk are all-natural, nutritious foods that can be used to add nutrients and flavor to a wide variety of recipes.  Sugar is what makes food unhealthy. Common pasta is made from white flour (refined grains) which means pasta is nearly equivalent to sugar. Add 240g of sugar (40g/serving) to this tomato and garlic pasta, and you’re looking at heartburn with an energy crash. (And you’ll be scouring the pantry for your next sugar snack within the hour.)  Substitute common pasta with our low-carb alternative, and this recipe becomes nourishment. The ingredients provide vitamins, minerals, protein, and quality, whole-food energy.  Enjoy this tomato and garlic pasta knowing it supports your well-being. Learn more about eating less sugar here. One Pot Tomato and Garlic Pasta Tips 1. Meal prep  This recipe keeps well and reheats like a dream. So, go ahead and make a double batch to enjoy throughout the week! Once cooked and cooled, leftovers can be transferred to glass Tupperware and stored in the fridge for up to five to seven days. Then, just warm them in the microwave or over medium heat on the stove, and enjoy!  2. Include protein  We kept this pasta vegetarian-friendly, but you could easily bulk it up with the addition of cooked ground meat such as lean beef, turkey, or chicken.  3. Add extra veggies Whether you have picky eaters or are just trying to incorporate more vegetables into your life, this tomato and garlic pasta is a great way to sneak in extra servings. Add mushrooms, zucchini, or spinach to the mix, and you won’t even notice that they’re there!  4. Incorporate a side  Round out your meal, making it extra filling and fit for a crowd with healthy side dishes like a lemon Parmesan salad, spiraled cucumber salad, or low-carb

One of my favorite deal apps, Shopkick, suddenly went dark on March 26. This seems to have been a shock to employees who were laid off without warning.
