No Noodles! A Healthy pasta dish


Avoiding Carbs? No problem!



Red sauce eggplant pasta. Avoiding carbs from pasta. Substitute pasta.
(Unintentionally, the basil leaves turned into a flower.)

This is a Red Sauce Filipino Style Spaghetti. I was craving for a red sauce spaghetti unfortunately, we don't have a stocked noodles. So, I thought of making an alternative. I came up with an eggplant/aubergine as my noodles. Honestly and sincerely telling to you guys that, I did not even know that it was done before. Just glad I knew it before checking it on the net.

My ingredients I found in my kitchen was extremely simple. 
(makes 2 servings.)

  • Tomato Sauce (not Spaghetti Sauce)
  • onion &  2 gloves of garlic
  • 1 fresh tomato
  • 1/4 red bell pepper
  • sugar
  • Cheese (not just for garnishing)
This vegetable was perfect for Red Sauce, believe me. The taste of the eggplant like eating a real pasta dish. 

And Viola! Instant but Healthy Red Sauce Pasta.


Zucchini, substitute pasta, avoiding carbs
Cucumber Pesto


Another dish is Pesto, but I called it Pesto Salad instead of Pesto Pasta. I intentionally made this for my pesto pasta snack, but It seems that, it is not perfect for pasta. This is cucumber with a Pesto sauce already mixed up pack (Clara Ole, Cheesy Pesto).  Clearly in look and taste, it turned out to be a simple salad.


P.S. In short story like this, will be posted through post instead of pages.
