I love Italian Food. The rich sauces, gooey melted cheese, and pasta. Lots and lots of pasta. But I am on a mission to eat healthy and searching for dishes that not only taste good but are nutritious. Thanks to Luxury Pasta’s new 100% whole grain I was able to achieve just that. I know, you read whole grain and immediately think of most whole grain pastas that are the equivalent of chewing on cardboard. In addition to the dry texture of most wheat pastas, cooking whole wheat pasta meant twice the cooking time of traditional pasta. That’s changed. With Luxury whole wheat pasta you have amazing taste and texture while combining all of the health benefits associated with whole grains. Go ahead and read there ingredient list. There’s only ONE! Durum whole wheat flour is the only one listed. Any nutritionist will tell you that eating simply is one of the keys to eating healthy. If you need a degree in chemistry to read the ingredient label than it’s probably not the healthiest option.
Luxury offers 100% Whole Grain spaghetti, elbows, penne and angel hair pasta, which received the Whole Grain Council’s “100% Whole Grain” stamp of approval.

I tried to come up with a recipe that was colorful, nutritious and different from a traditional red sauce. Enjoy this with just veggies or add chicken or shrimp.
Ingredients:
3 cups Luxury 100% Whole Wheat Pasta
½ Red Pepper
½ Yellow Pepper
½ Green Pepper
½ cup Red Onion
½ cup Baby Portabella Mushrooms
½ cup Grape Tomatoes (sliced in half)
½ tsp Minced Garlic
Olive Oil
Season to taste
Splash of White Wine* Optional
Directions:
Cook pasta as per directions on box.
Sauté peppers, onions, mushrooms in olive oil until soft. Add grape tomatoes & minced garlic. Season to taste. I used Emeril’s Original Essence. Drain pasta & add to sauté pan with the vegetables. To give extra flavor, I put a splash of white wine and let it simmer until the pasta & veggies were mixed together well. This dish was super simple and something I will continue to make in the future.
Enjoy!
