BLACK BEAN PASTA PAD THAI
Pad Thai doesn't need to be something you feel guilty about eating. This recipe not only swaps out the rice noodles in favor of healthier black bean pasta, but also trims down some of the other heavy ingredients. By comparison, standard Pad Thai weighs in at about 60 calories/ounce (compared to 42 calories/ounce) and isn't even close to black bean pasta when it comes to fiber and protein. This recipe doesn't specify a meat, so feel free to add as you see fit.
