Parsley and Lemon Zest Pasta Recipe – 0 Point Total

I know have said this many times before, but I am a huge fan of Miracle Noodle. They have a ZERO CALORIE pasta that truly wants to make me do flips with excitement. Granted, it’s not as perfect as regular pasta, but for zero calories and zero fat, you just can’t beat it. Plus, I’ve got a ton of weight watcher pasta recipes that incorporates Miracle Noodles and they are super yummy! One of my favorites, in fact, is this zesty Parsley and Lemon Pasta. It’s so light and fresh, and is the perfect summer side dish recipe that goes great with fish or chicken. I also like that you can serve this dish warm or cold! Though, I have found that I like it best at room temperature. Too hot or too cold is not quite as good. The only ingredient that has any calories in this pasta recipe is the olive oil. So each serving comes out to a 0 point value!! LOOOOOOOVE it!!! Seriously, if you haven’t gotten on board with Miracle Noodle yet, you’ve gotta give it a try. You can get SO much quantity from these Miracle Noodle Recipes that you really get filled up and can actually enjoy what you are eating. Seriously, this calorie free, fat free pasta is a Weight Watchers best friend.
