It’s a new year and pasta is still one of our favorite foods! Portion size is key to look at here so be sure to enjoy this with a side of veggies and start with a salad. We’ve lightened it up on fat and added in more protein with the turkey sausage. We also added more fiber and a pop of color with the peas. If you’ve never tried carbonara, this is your sign!
