Delicious: Making whole wheat pasta recipe

328

Being South Asians, it’s our hobby to eat. Generally, other people eat because they want to live, but we live only to eat. Whether someone comes to this world or leaves it, whether it is a celebration or an observance, each and every occasion of ours is linked with food.

This immense amount of love for food leads us to obesity and issues related to body-image and body-shaming. While men usually accept the reality of them being fat, as majority are least bothered about it, women often go to extremes in order to get their ideal size back.

The word “dieting” scares everyone. For many, it symbolizes consumption of lots of boring food, boiled veggies, chicken, some tasteless soups and what not. But with the passage of time, I have realized that dieting can be really fun. You can eat your favorite things only by replacing them with some healthy options.

Have you ever imagined eating pasta while on a diet? I am sure you haven’t. Here is a pasta recipe for all those pasta-lovers who are on diet; you surely can try this in order to satisfy your months-long craving.

Whole wheat flour

  1. Mix two eggs in a small cup of whole wheat flour.
  2. Add a pinch of black pepper, white pepper and some water, if needed, to make the dough.
