How I Make Spaghetti Healthier

Spaghetti is a staple in my kitchen, but lately I’ve been trying to make it a bit healthier without switching to veggie noodles, since those never go over well at home. What’s worked for me is bulking up the sauce with extra veggies. I usually start by sautéing onions, garlic, and bell peppers, then toss in mushrooms and spinach. The spinach wilts down and blends right in, so it’s not too noticeable. For protein, I swap out half the ground beef for ground turkey or even lentils. Lentils cook quickly and pick up the flavor of the sauce, and no one seems to mind the difference. I also use whole wheat spaghetti—there’s a slight texture change, but it’s not dramatic, and it adds more fiber. One trick I picked up is to add a splash of the pasta water to the sauce before mixing everything together. It helps the sauce stick to the noodles better and gives a nice, silky finish. I top it off with fresh basil and a sprinkle of parmesan. #Healthy eating #Spaghetti #EasyCooking #Recipe #Food #Cooking

Tried Vegan Mayo and Now It’s a Staple

Vegan mayonnaise has really changed up the way I make sandwiches and salads. The ‘Follow Your Heart’ brand is what’s usually in the fridge because my sister can’t have egg yolks, and honestly, it’s pretty much a one-to-one swap for regular mayo. The texture is creamy, and it doesn’t have that weird aftertaste some plant-based spreads do. Last week, I made a chickpea salad sandwich using it. Just mashed chickpeas, diced celery, a little red onion, and a big spoonful of vegan mayo. Added some lemon juice, salt, and pepper, then piled it on toasted bread. The mayo held everything together and gave it that classic deli feel. It’s also great for coleslaw or as a base for dressings—just whisk in some sriracha or mustard for a quick sauce. It works in potato salad, wraps, or even as a dip for fries. Just keep it chilled and give it a good stir before using. #VeganStaples #PlantBasedCooking #EggFree #VeganMayo #KitchenHacks #Recipe #Food #Cooking

5-Minute Garlic Butter Shrimp That WOW My Friends 🍤✨

Never thought a bag of frozen shrimp could turn into something people would talk about for weeks. I was in a rush, everyone was hungry, and all I had was shrimp, butter, garlic, and a lemon. Tossed the shrimp in a hot pan with a big chunk of butter, minced garlic, and let them sizzle until pink. Squeezed half a lemon over the top, sprinkled some parsley, and that was it. People actually paused mid-bite to ask how I did it. The whole thing took maybe six minutes, tops. No fancy tricks, just heat, butter, and good timing. It’s wild how something so basic can make people think you’ve got secret chef skills. Now, every time someone asks for an easy meal, this is the first thing that comes to mind. If you’ve got a pan and some shrimp, you’re already halfway there. #EasyMeals #CookingHacks #ImpressWithLess #FoodStories #Recipe #Food
