Notes
The macronutrients were calculated using one-fourth of the sauce, no additional cheese, and regular Barilla Plus spaghetti to bump up the protein.
NOTE: For this pasta dish, I use half nonfat Greek yogurt and half mayonnaise. Your macros will vary if you use all mayonnaise or all nonfat Greek yogurt.
