This Whole-Wheat Mostaccioli Alfredo with Parsley and Parmesan is a healthier take on the classic creamy pasta dish. By using whole-wheat pasta and incorporating fresh parsley, this recipe combines rich flavors with added nutrients for a dish that’s both delicious and satisfying.
- Use freshly grated Parmesan cheese for the best flavor and texture.
- Make sure to cook the pasta al dente, as it will continue to cook when mixed with the hot Alfredo sauce.
- If your Alfredo sauce is too thick, you can thin it out by adding a small amount of the pasta's cooking water.
- To ensure the sauce clings well to the whole-wheat pasta, toss the pasta immediately with the Alfredo sauce while it’s still hot.
- For a burst of freshness and additional flavor, add a squeeze of lemon juice right before serving the pasta.
Enjoy your Whole-Wheat Mostaccioli Alfredo garnished with extra parsley and a sprinkle of parmesan. This nutrient-packed version of a traditional Alfredo dish is sure to impress your family and friends while providing a delightful and hearty meal.
