🧀 Super Simple Cheesy Pasta (Fuel Me Once)

Creamy, cheesy and made to be eaten without a fight.

(Made with pasta that’s 40% carrot… but they won’t know it.)

Ingredients

• Fuel Me Once pasta

  1 portion (~62.5g pasta) = ~25g carrot

  2 portions (~125g pasta) = ~50g carrot

• 1 tbsp butter or olive oil

• 1 tbsp cream cheese or a splash of cream

• 30–40g grated cheddar

• Splash of pasta water

• Pinch of salt

Method

1. Cook the pasta
Bring a pot of salted water to the boil and cook the Fuel Me Once pasta for 4–6 minutes.

Reserve a small cup of pasta water, then drain.

2. Make it creamy
In a pan, melt the butter or heat the oil.

Add:

• cream cheese (or cream)

• a splash of pasta water

Stir until smooth and silky.

3. Add cheese + pasta
Add the cooked pasta and grated cheddar.

Stir until everything is coated and glossy.

Add a little more pasta water if needed to loosen.

4. Serve
Serve warm. Add extra cheese on top if needed.

Notes

• Keep it simple — that’s the point

• The pasta brings the veg, no need to add more

• Add cooked chicken if you want extra protein

Simple, filling, and quietly better.
