Whole Wheat Pasta with Peas, Radishes, and Parmesan: My Diary of Us

Whole Wheat Pasta Salad with Peas, Radishes, and Parmesan

I am finally cooking in my kitchen again and I gotta tell you, I felt a little rusty for a few days.  I had to get my mojo back, including getting used to a new kitchen, remembering where I put everything, and figuring out the new cook times with this oven since it cooks completely differently than my last one.  This week I'm getting my stride back it seems and I am so glad to be settled and feeling somewhat normal again.  After spending two week eating out and surviving off of whatever Canean and I could find to eat (including fulfilling my pregnancy cravings), we decided this week we were both going to get back to our healthy lifestyles and that includes working out and eating right.  My whole wheat pasta with peas and radishes is the perfect light lunch or dinner side that is healthy and full of flavor.

Prepping for the week is the only way to ensure you will be successful to stay on track..at least for me it's that way.  And one of my most favorite tricks is to make a dish that I can eat on for a few days.  It's ready to eat, so it doesn't give me time to choose a not so healthy option instead. This pasta salad is the perfect recipe to make in advance because it can be eaten at room temperature or right out of the fridge.

Citrus Shaved Brussel Sprout Salad with White Cheddar: My Diary of Us

Citrus Shaved Brussel Sprout Salad with White Cheddar

Hi guys!  How was your weekend?  Ours went by too quickly, but was pretty great.  We celebrated the hubby's birthday this weekend with friends over nachos and margaritas and then spent Sunday being lazy and watching it rain.  I kind of love Sundays when it rains because it gives you an excuse to lay around and not be productive.  Unfortunately that can't last forever and Monday is inevitable, so let's make the most of it and start our week off right with a healthy meal that you will fall in love with!  You HAVE to make my citrus shaved brussel sprout salad with white cheddar.  It's my new salad obsession, and I can't wait for you to try it.

It will make you happy when you eat it because it is just that good.  I made this salad by accident for the first time and was blown away by the flavor combinations.  In fact I love it so much, that Saturday at the farmer's market I bought two bundles of brussel sprouts because one time eating this salad is just simply not enough.
