Here in this recipe all the goodness of healthy vegetables has been added to the pasta & to give it a crunchy twist some chicken nuggets have been used but the good news is the nuggets are not calorie laden deep fried ones, they are low calorie baked nuggets. So, all in all this recipe has a wholesomeness of health & taste both in one shot
