This looks fabulous. If you are looking to cut some of the carbs (W poits) from pasta you can sub tofu noodles (40cal bag - 2 carbs) or salad greens. Delicious!!

That looks so fresh! The 8 WW points took me back a bit, but if you were to eat that as a main dish, and it has so much protein and fiber, that's really a great meal!!
