How about reducing the dough and increasing the greens?
I adore pasta. It’s among my top-choice dishes, and that’s why I consume it frequently. There are diverse methods to cook it, it pairs well with various sauces, and it’s effortless to prepare in just 20 minutes. However, the issue with indulging too much in pasta is akin to overindulging in bread: excessive carbs. Since pasta is essentially bread in a different form, a single portion can be quite rich in carbohydrates, potentially leading to weight gain and a bloated sensation. I don’t think I could completely eliminate pasta from my diet, but if you wish to consume less pasta, there are alternatives.

The allure of spaghetti lies more in its texture than its basic flavor. Plain spaghetti doesn’t have much taste on its own. If you’re inventive, you can replicate that texture using specific vegetables. By using a vegetable peeler or spiralizer, you can create thin strips of vegetables like zucchini, carrots, and spaghetti squash. Naturally, it won’t taste exactly the same, but preparing vegetable noodles in the same way you’d cook pasta might introduce you to some intriguing new taste experiences while providing you with more substantial servings of essential vitamins and minerals.
You might also want to update the toppings you use on your pasta. Many store-bought pasta sauces tend to contain high levels of additives like sodium and sugar. Choosing organic, chunkier sauces will provide you with more of the natural flavor and benefits of tomatoes, along with a richer flavor profile. Additionally, consider avoiding items like powdered cheese and instead opt for healthier choices like pesto. Pesto offers a very refined flavor profile, making it a suitable alternative to cheese.
Another appealing aspect of pasta is its versatility, so try to mirror that adaptability in your eating habits.
