This high energy high fibre lunch is surprisingly high in protein. By combining fresh peas, legumes, with grain from the pasta, a complete protein is made. Add to that some yogurt and you have a meal with close to 20 grams of protein. For those wishing to reduce energy for weight loss can substitute the sheep's yoghurt with a low fat yoghurt.
Sauté the garlic and chilli in the olive oil. Cook the peas in lightly salted water with a spring of mint until tender (approx 5 minutes) Cook the pasta for 10 - 15 minutes until tender and drain. Toss the peas, sautéed garlic, chilli, mint and sheep's yoghurt through the pasta until well combined well combined.
Note : The RDI of protein is 0.75g per kg body weight.
