With cooler weather and shorter days upon us in much of the world, we may have an added desire for heartier and warming meals. And often, our thoughts will turn to wheat and other grain-based pastas. But before you go there, consider the lower-calorie and grain-free option of hearty and filling veggetti, or spaghetti-style noodles made from squashes. They are very nutritious, gentler on the environment than grains, and easy to make and serve, especially when we eat the HumanaNatura way and follow HumanaNatura’s OurPlate healthy eating guidelines. Today’s example HumanaNatura Steam Meal shows you the basics of grain-free noodle dishes, which you can vary in many different ways.
Our HumanaNatura sample meal begins with a bed of shredded cabbage and carrot placed in a saucepan, upon which are layered some diced shallot and garlic, a small zucchini squash that has been cut into ‘veggetti’ noodles (see here for info on a cutting tool), a coarsely-diced portobello mushroom (feel free to substitute diced poultry, fish, or meat), and a bit of julienne-cut orange bell pepper. This stack of foods is then covered and steamed on moderate heat for four or five minutes (see our Cooking With Steam Overview for guidance if you are new to food steaming), a generous dollop of marinara sauce is added, and everything is steamed for an additional minute or two. The meal is then plated, garnished with shredded mozzarella (or parmesan) cheese, a splash of olive oil, black pepper, and chopped parsley, and served immediately. Hearty, healthy, and delicious, making even the coldest days a bit warmer and summer a little closer.
