Well I'm a big fan of pasta recipes, but my partner suggests I eat some more non pasta recipes.
Recipe ideas?

    Recipe ideas for pasta recipes? Or non-pasta recipes?

    Are you wanting alternative carb-based recipes, eg. using rice or potatoes or quinoa? Or are you looking to reduce carbs and have more meat/veg based recipes? Or are you looking for recipes that incorporate a fake pasta substitute? Or are you just looking for any and all recipes that don't contain pasta?

    Spaghetti squash, google for recipes. You can boil, bake, microwave or crock pot it.

    Well an easy swap would be to do some veggie noodles (i.e. spiralized zucchini or other squash) and substitute in any sauces/ingredients you like. Other than that, try brown rice, quinoa, bulgar, there's tons of other starch or non-starch substitutes you could use.
