Let's say you just cooked from free-range chicken and veggies. You need some grains to go with that -- what should you chose? Brown rice or whole-wheat pasta? I know what my choice would be -- I'm a pasta fiend so it's always my go-to grain. But which is healthier?
Fitsugar recently asked the same question -- want to know what they found? While both rice and pasta are similar in calories and carb content, the pasta has more fiber and protein than the rice, so it's just slightly more nutritious. Interesting!
But you know, variety is the spice of life -- both whole wheat pasta and brown rice are good for you do don't hesitate to use them in moderation.
