Carb Goddess


Ok so it's that time LUNCH TIME! One of the biggest scariest things about becoming paleo was losing my pasta...well fear not all you carb lovers there is a pasta that I get from Whole Foods called Ancient Harvest quinoa pasta which is basically just quinoa and tastes amazing!

Yummy Paleo Pasta

Ingredients:
- Quinoa Pasta
-Organic Spaghetti Sauce (I use Whole Food's sugar free)
-Trader Joes organic chicken sausage (Spicy Italian or Garlic and Herb)
-Mushrooms
-Coconut oil
-red pepper or hot sauce (optional)

1. Make pasta according to directions on box
2. Cook sausage for 12-14 minutes over medium high heat in a large deep frying pan coated with oil, stirring frequently
3. When sausages are 10 minutes into cooking add mushrooms to pan
4. Remove sausages and continue to cook mushrooms till soft and browned (about 2 minutes)
5. Slice sausages and return to the pan with mushrooms
6. Add pasta to the pan and toss mushrooms and sausages into pasta over low heat
7. Add pasta sauce and toss till pasta is coated well and well incorporated
8. Add red peppers or hot sauce depending on how hot you like your food (I loove SPICY)
9. Enjoy

This is a yummy pasta that you can mix and match with different sauces and types of meat (chicken, beef, shrimp, etc)

Serves about 4-5 people

Well that is all for now enjoy and remember we have a date for dinner!
