8. Carbonara pasta
Kerry O’Brien says:Pasta is a great budget option. I made the healthy, creamy mummy carbonara for my kids and the fragrant salmon spaghetti for myself.
Carbonara is a free recipe (see link below) and my kids love it…. Although they still didn’t realize I switched to the healthy mummy carbonara recipe from our regular recipe a while ago. This one is way healthier than I used to make them, and even a fanatical Master 11 absolutely loves it.
With Aromatic Spaghetti, which is from Recipe Center, I used gluten-free Quinoa Penne instead of spaghetti. This is an old favorite of mine and I take it regularly and it’s very fragrant with fresh herbs.”
says Eleanor Hannah Hello fresh carbonara pasta!
Leave out the mushrooms and green onions and add some amazing cheese! “.
