@mariannas_pantry: Repeat after me, trying to lose weight does not mean eating little to no food and being hungry all the time!!! Try focusing on adding protein and fiber to each meal to help keep you full and satisfied and small changes you can make to your cooking methods to make being in a calorie defict easier! PROTEIN PASTA SALAD JARS Servings 4: Macros per serving: 413 kcal 9g fat 60g carbs 30g protein Ingredients: 10 oz (dry) chickpea or protein pasta of choice 1 large European cucumber, diced 1/2 cup red onion, chopped 1 large bell pepper, chopped 1 1/2 cups chickpeas, drained and rinsed (for even more protein you add chicken instead) 1 cup corn 1 cup reduced fat feta cheese 3/4 cup any dressing you choose (I used Kraft fat free Italian, that’s what the nutrition info includes) Optional: 1 cup banana peppers Instructions: 1. Cook pasta according to package instructions. 2. While pasta cooks, prepare your veggies (highly recommend this chopped to cut time it’s on my Amazon storefront) 3. To 4 large jars, first add your dressing (around 3 tbsp to each), then evenly distribute remaining ingredients starting with onion, chickpeas, corn, cucumber, bell pepper, pasta, feta, and banana peppers. 4. Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days and enjoy! #pastasalad #saladjar #mealprepideas #highprotein #weightlossfood
