Instructions

  1. Bring an 8 quart stock pot of water to a boil and generously season with salt. Cook pasta according to al dente package directions. Drain pasta.

  2. Meanwhile, preheat BBQ over medium-high heat. In a rimmed sheet pan lay out zucchini and eggplant slices. Season with salt and black pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and massage gently. Place vegetables in a single layer and grill until charred on both sides, about 2 minutes per side.

  3. Place the 8 quart pot over medium heat and add marinara sauce; stir until warmed through. Toss together with pasta, grilled vegetables and parsley.

  4. Serve immediately.

Why this Grilled Vegetable Rigatoni works for PCOS

Lunch is where most PCOS meal plans either succeed or collapse. A meal like this Grilled Vegetable Rigatoni that combines adequate protein, fibre-rich carbs, and fat keeps blood sugar stable for the rest of the workday and reduces the late-afternoon energy crash that drives sugar cravings around 3-4pm.
