You HAVE to try this high protein pasta sauce! You guys, it’s so smooth and creamy, you would NOT know there is cottage cheese in it! I used high protein chickpea pasta so this meatless meal was packed with protein! 💪 . Here’s what you need: 8oz pasta (I used chickpea pasta) 1 tablespoon olive oil 5 cloves garlic, minced 1 (15oz) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes 2 tablespoons lemon juice (either one works great!) 1/2 cup cottage cheese (4% milk fat works best) 1/2 cup pasta water . Cook the pasta according to package directions and reserve one cup of pasta water. In a large saucepan, add the olive oil and garlic and sauté over medium-low heat for 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes, and vodka or lemon juice. Simmer over medium-high heat for 10-12 minutes or until the tomatoes have thickened. In a blender, add cooked tomatoes, cottage cheese, and 1/2 cup pasta water, and blend until smooth. Add an additional splash of pasta water, if needed. Combine the pasta with the sauce and enjoy! . #cottag...
