Mushroom Stroganoff

One of favorite fall meals is stroganoff over pasta. While this meal is absolutely delicious, it's not the greatest meal for when you are on a diet, with all the unhealthy ingredients. So to make it healthy, we eliminated the red meat and cut out the unhealthy pasta/rice that it usually goes over. We have found this fantastic brand Explore Asian who makes a variety of bean pasta. Compared to normal pasta, this one 11 grams of dietary and less carbohydrates compared to normal pasta, which has 40+ carbs and 2 or less grams of dietary fiber. Another awesome thing since we cut out the meat, is that the pasta actual has 24 grams of protein! We bought this huge box at Costco, what a deal.
