Low cost pasta alternatives…

I am in desperate need of some affordable alternatives to pasta.

We LOVE pasta and I have lots of great recipes, but hubby and I have been substituting pasta and other “carby” foods with veggies while the zucchini harvest was so good. Now that gardens are slowing down, we don’t want to go back (we ended up losing a LOT of weight :~)

I need help keeping our grocery budget down and still eating yummy foods that are healthy.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jenni
