Here’s another adapted recipe from Engine 2. Packed with fiber, whole grains and plenty of flare, this is a dish that satisfies and shows how simple healthy eating can be! Makes 1 medium serving.
Ingredients:
·      ½ cup whole grain or gluten free pasta
·      A little purified water for ‘frying’
·      ¼ onion, diced
·      1 clove garlic, finely chopped or minced
·      ¼ tsp. cumin
·      ½ tsp. chili powder
·      ½ tomato, diced
·      ½ small zucchini, diced
·      ½ can pinto beans, rinsed or 2/3 cup premade
·      ¼ cup cilantro leaves, chopped
·      Sea salt and pepper to taste
Method:
1.   Cook the pasta as directed on the package.
2.   Add a little water to a pot and bring to medium heat. Add the onion and cook for about 5 minutes.
3.   Stir the garlic, cumin, and chili powder into the onions. Then, add the veggies and beans, cover the pot, reduce the heat to low, and cook for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4.   Add the cilantro to the vegetables. Stir until evenly mixed. Serve the vegetables over the whole grain pasta, and add salt and pepper to taste.
