Pasta... I think most of us including kids and elders, love to have pasta ,But at the same time try to avoid it some time due to sauce and creams used to make it delicious. My kids love to have these in their tiffin too,So I thought why not to give it a healthy twist that make people comfortable to have it without any guilt. I just added puréed onions, paneer and oats to the regular pasta and it turned out super delicious, guilt free healthy breakfast for us.
Recipe of the same is given below, just give it a try.
