I love pasta, but regular pasta are not very healthy for us. Whole-Wheat Pasta, Quinoa Pasta, Buckwheat Noodles, Sprouted-Grain Pasta, Spelt Pasta, Brown Rice Pasta are some great alternative to traditional refined pasta. But then one day while shopping at trader joe’s, I saw Red Lentil Pasta and I thought to try it. This lentil pasta are high in protein and fiber also vegan and gluten-free. So here I am sharing my recipe of lentil pasta with you all.

I tried and loved Red Lentil Pasta . This pasta is healthy, tasty, nutritious and you can enjoy them at any time of the day. I have paired this pasta with lots of veggies which make its even more healthy pasta recipe. Preparing this pasta is also very simple and easy. I love adding garlic to my pasta so I made this garlicky lentil pasta for lunch. I love the flavour of roasted cauliflower, so I roasted my cauliflower and sauted rest of the veggies and then mixed with veggies with the boiled pasta and drizzled some sriracha sauce.
