healthy-ish pasta recipe

So far this year i've been doing quite a good job of staying healthy and choosing healthier foods than last year, but I couldn't cut all my favourite foods out of my diet straight away- that would be impossible for me. So i've been slowly cutting down on my fave foods, this is why this pasta is healthy-ish because it still has a few slightly unhealthy foods in it but it is better than what was in my diet last year.

If you're looking for a yummy dinner or tea-time idea that isn't too unhealthy keep on reading;

(I am aware this doesn't look too nice but it definitely tastes nice)

what you will need:

-50g of penne pasta
-half a can of sweetcorn
-a handful of spinach
-a few stalks of asparagus
-25g of mozzarella (grated)
-olive oil (or any oil but olive oil is a little bit healthier)

First of all start off by cooking the pasta, read the back of the bag of pasta for cooking instructions. While the pasta is cooking get all your other ingredients together, also while the pasta is cooking steam or boil your asapargus (I boiled mine)...it doesn't matter if it goes cold because it will be reheated later.

When your pasta is almost done poor about a tablespoon of olive oil into the pan and let that heat up for a little bit on a medium heat.  Add the spinach and pasta and cook for 1 minute, continuously stirring.

Then add the asparagus and sweetcorn and cook for about 40-60 seconds, add your mozzarella and stir until the cheese is melted and covering the pasta. Take off the heat and leave to cool for a minute until you eat it!

That's it! How easy! It seriously tastes amazing, and i'm quite proud of myself for coming up with the recipe.

I hope you enjoy it if you make it! Also, i was thinking of doing a few more easy health type posts on my blog...anyone up for that?
