Healthy Hints
Serve this dish with a simple tossed salad made of fresh lettuce, cucumbers, and carrots dressed in light olive oil and balsamic vinegar. This healthy side is a great way to add more veggies into your meal! If you're looking for a low-carb option, replace the wholewheat spaghetti with courgette (zucchini) noodles, or Zoodles, which you can whip up in your own kitchen. Use a julienne peeler to thinly slice the courgette into long noodle-like strands and then quickly blanch in water.
