Lemon Garlic Pasta

HAPPY SUNDAYING !!!!!!!!!!!

A Fresh, Light pasta so good you don’t miss the regular pasta.

Sometimes you just crave carbs. When I get the pasta craving I make sure to indulge in a delicious bowl full of it! But not just pasta. I add a ton of flavor with Roasted Garlic, Lemon, Pamesan and Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

When a recipe only uses a few ingredients, make sure those ingredients are high quality.  Use your favorite pasta. The garlic and lemon needs to be fresh. The parmesan cheese must be high quality. And use a premium olive oil.

Full Flavors with Less Carbs !!!!!
