It sounds yummy but can you eat pasta? I have trouble with it (that is when I have a decent fill) I am in the midst of an open period and enjoying it but can't wait for my fill appt. on Wednesday at the same time...such a double edged sward this band is :)

Tina, right now I can eat pasta because my band is completely unfilled, so I'm taking advantage of that. Ordinarily I would prepare a dish like this and set aside my own portion of tofu & veggies before mixing it all together with the pasta. That way, I get my goodies and my husband gets the pasta he loves.
