Pasta with Brussels Sprouts
Healthy, because
Even smarter
Nutritional values
Vitamin C from Brussels sprouts is responsible for smooth skin and firm connective tissue. The rosemary with its essential oils makes cabbage more digestible.
If the shape of the pasta is not so important to you, you should choose whole wheat pasta, because it contains significantly more fiber, vitamins and minerals than white flour pasta.
