"This dish takes less than 30 minutes to make, and everyone in my family enjoys it — including my three-year-old — despite the fact that half the noodles are actually zucchini," says chef Mia Rigden. This recipe offers the best of both worlds: A combination of spaghetti and zucchini noodles means you'll get the benefits of veggies and the satisfaction of pasta. To balance out your meal with some protein, use chickpea or lentil pasta, or serve it with some chicken or shrimp. Breakfast: Whole-Grain Toaster Waffle with Greek Yogurt, Berries and Chia Seeds Lunch: Tuna-Chickpea Salad Sandwich Dinner: Super Green Spaghetti with Zucchini Pesto with Shrimp |
