Whole Wheat Pasta with Wheat Sauce

Whole Wheat Pasta with Wheat Sauce
Where would you be without easy, high protein meals? And pasta is easy, don't you think?

Whole Wheat Pasta with Wheat Sauce
4 oz. whole wheat pasta (fusilli pictured here)
4 oz. store bought vegetarian spaghetti sauce (Prego pictured here)
2.5 oz wheat gluten/seitan, minced.
parmesan cheese, shredded or grated
pepper, to taste
other herbs, to taste (dried basil, for me; oregano for you?)

Prepare pasta according to directions on the package. Here, the pasta was cooked for 11 minutes. While the pasta is cooking, warm up the sauce and mince the wheat gluten and put it in the sauce. Throw in pepper and other herbs. When the pasta is cooked, drain and put in a bowl. Pour sauce over the noodles and top with parmesan cheese. Serves 1. 24 grams of protein.
