This high-protein pasta is made with a combination of edamame and mung bean. But you can also use whole-grain pasta or legume-based pastas in your local grocery store. If you’re in a rush, prepare the spicy sweet potato sauce ahead of time. And if you’re looking for a higher protein vegetarian alternative, swap out the shrimp for tofu.
