  This collection offers 60 Italian pasta recipes, each containing less than five grams of fat per portion, and many with less than one gram. Dishes include both traditional favourites, such as spaghetti bolognese, and contemporary classics, such as pasta with tomato and chilli sauce. The book also offers a introductory section on healthy eating, with information about the role fat plays in our diet, as well as suggestions on ways to cut down. A chart also allows you to gauge the fat and calorie contents of the most common ingredients found in pasta recipes, while a short techniques section shows how easy and simple it is to make your own pasta dough. Recipes are illustrated with easy-to-follow, step-by-step photography for easy cooking and each dish is accompanied by at-a-glance notes on fat and calorie contents per serving.
