After a big training session when the hunger pains kick in I can’t wait to tuck into some pasta. Here’s a great recipe that my wife has found.
She makes sure that I am getting some healthy carbohydrates by using either brown/wholemeal pasta or egg noodles. The prawns are really quick to cook as well as being a great source of protein.
Give this recipe a go….It’s really easy to prepare and I’m sure you will love it!
Ingredients:
- 30 grams peeled green prawns
- 1 can diced tomatos
- 2 cloves garlic
- 2 teaspoons chill flakes (or more if you like it hot!)
- 110g pasta or noodles
- 1/2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon oregano or thyme
- 2 tablespoons parsley, shopped
- salt and peper to taste (go easy on the salt though!)
Method:
Cook pasta or noodles as directed on packaging. Heat a pan over medium heat; add olive oil, onion, garlic, chilli flakes and oregano or thyme and cook until onions are soft. Add the prawns and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 3 - 4 minutes until prawns are pink in colour. Toss pasta through the sauce and serve garnished with parsley. Serves 2
