I prefer healthiest version in each and every product (Whole grain Bread, Multi grain Flour, Whole grain Pasta etc). When compared to regular pasta whole grain pastas are rich in fiber and other vitamins. I am not an addict to Pastas. I pack lunch with Variety Rice and Poriyal for my DH in alternate weekdays. He even dislikes and requested me to stop rice. So nowadays pasta is included in our weekday lunch special :-). Today I am here with Whole Grain Penne Veggie Pasta Recipe…
