Pasta with Peas, Cauliflower and Olive Oil

Pasta with Peas, Cauliflower and Olive Oil

Hi Friends,
There was a function in my kids school. They asked me to pack some snacks in the tiffin and option they gave was between chips and pasta. Obviously i chose pasta. I wanted to make it healthy so i added my kids favorite veggies (peas and cauliflower) in it. To make it in Indian style i chose chaat masala instead of oregano.  To give it more healthy touch i used olive oil. I also packed some fruits for them like strawberries and grapes. They were so happy to see there tiffin packed with pasta and i was happy to feed some healthy version of pasta and fruits this way.

Ingredients:-

Peas - 1/2 cup

Notes:-
  1. You can use whole wheat pasta for more healthier version. I was not having any in hand.
  2. You can use any pasta for this recipe.
  3. I added chat masala for Indian touch, you can use oregano.
  4. Tomato and onion in optional.You can make it without them also.
HOPE YOU WILL LIKE IT
