Dear Residents,

Please come see us February 28th between the 9201 and 9205 buildings as you leave for work or school that day. We will be distributing breakfast on the go as a small token of our appreciation for residency!

We look forward to seeing you then!

Though some pastas are packed full of bad carbohydrates, there are many healthy alternatives to fattening pasta dishes. These simple to prepare recipes can be quite healthful, too!

Classic Macaroni and Cheese
Macaroni and cheese is probably one of the last things you would expect to eat while dieting, but this simple recipe demonstrates how to turn the childhood favorite into a healthy adult meal. Using fat-free milk and low-fat cheese, this delicious comfort food contains only 200 calories and 4 grams of fat.

Mushroom Penne
A mushroom-lover’s dish straight out of a gourmet restaurant, this healthy pasta will impress even the pickiest dinner guests. It contains only a few household ingredients as well, using chicken broth, red wine and, of course, mushrooms to give it its warm and savory flavor.

Turkey Bolognese With Shell Pasta
This unique pasta dish uses turkey in place of the usual beef Bolognese. The anise gives the turkey a taste similar to that of sausage, without the saturated fat, while the red wine and garlic add hearty Italian flavor without adding excess calories.
