Pasta Bean Toss

Whole grain pasta, beans, and plenty of fresh vegetables make this recipe a carb- and antioxidant-packed meal that will restock your energy stores after a run. It makes 8 hearty portions, so save any leftovers for lunch the next day. Cutting the vegetables the night before will help speed up the cooking process.

Instructions :

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. When it boils, salt the water and add the pasta. Cook according to package directions.
