My go-to high protein pasta.
Recipe linked in bio!
I’ve seen make blended cottage cheese sauces for years now, and every version I’ve tried has been ridiculously good. Definitely check out his page if you’re into macro-friendly meals. Since I love eating meals that feel indulgent during the week without completely blowing my macros, this is exactly the kind of recipe I gravitate toward. I made this version to capture the vibe of rigatoni alla vodka with stracciatella, and honestly, it’s kind of insane how satisfying it is. You could technically eat this 3 times a day and still land around ~1800 calories while getting 150g of protein. (You’d probably get tired of it fast though).
I’d highly recommend freezing meal-prepped portions and reheating them whenever you need something easy over the next few weeks or months. It reheats incredibly well in the microwave and honestly tastes almost identical to the fresh version. It also keeps great in the fridge for around 4 days.
Genuinely one of the most convincing “indulgent” macro-friendly pasta dishes I’ve ever made, especially for meal prep.
Note: macros include an extra 20g cottage cheese + 5g parmigiano for garnish, but not the olive oil drizzle!
