Protein Noodles with Pesto & Roasted Vegetables
This Italian-inspired noodle dish combines store-bought pesto, our Protein Noodles and roasted vegetables. But if you’re short on time, just leave out the roasted vegetables and add some halved cherry tomatoes and blanched sugar snap peas instead.

I made this with jarred pesto, yellow and red bell peppers along with asparagus. Super easy, healthy and satisfying.
