Creamy High-Protein, High-Fiber Pasta 🍝

Looking for a delicious yet healthy pasta option? Try out this creamy, protein-packed pasta that's loaded with fiber and goodness! I've kept the method simple, just how I make it at home. Give it a try if you're craving something tasty but healthy at the same time.

Ingredients:
- Whole wheat pasta: ½ cup  
- Vegetables of your choice: 1 cup (I used beans, broccoli, bell peppers, and baby corn)  
- Oregano, salt, and chili flakes: To taste 
- Garlic: 6-8 cloves, chopped  
- Fresh basil leaves : ¼ cup (optional)  
-Olive oil : 1 tbsp  

For the sauce:
- Milk: 1 cup  
- Wheat flour : 1 tsp  
- Paneer : 50g  

Method:
1. Prepare the sauce:     
Blend paneer with milk, a bit of garlic, and oregano into a smooth paste. Adjust the consistency with a little water and set aside.

2. Cook the pasta:     
Pressure cook the pasta with a few drops of oil and ½ tsp of salt. Set aside.

3. Sauté the vegetables:    
In a pan, heat the olive oil, sauté the garlic, and add the veggies. Cook until they are soft but still crunchy.

4. Combine the sauce with veggies:     
Add the prepared sauce to the vegetables along with chili flakes, salt, and oregano. (Remember that you've already added salt to the pasta, so adjust accordingly.)

5. Thicken the sauce:     
Make a slurry by mixing 1 tsp of wheat flour with 2-3 tsp of water. Stir it into the sauce and veggie mix to thicken. Add basil leaves at this stage, if using. Let the mixture cook for another 1-2 minutes.

6. Mix in the pasta:     
Add the cooked pasta and toss everything together. Cook for another 2-3 minutes on medium heat.
And that's it! You've made yourself a creamy, high-protein, and fiber-rich pasta that's both yummy and healthy. 😍
