Health and fertility benefits of Spaghetti with Smoky Eggplant Sauce

Sunflower seeds are an excellent food for PCOS as they are packed with vitamin B2 (riboflavin) and vitamin B6 (pyridoxine). Just one cup of sunflower seeds provides 30% of the recommended daily intake for vitamin B6. Sunflower seeds are also loaded with two other important of PCOS busting minerals: zinc and magnesium. Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to.

Ingredients

2 c. baba ghanoush
2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 c. lemon juice
1 can chickpeas
3 scallions
1 lb. spaghetti
kosher salt
Pepper
Salted toasted sunflower seeds

Instructions

In a large bowl, mix the baba ghanoush with the olive oil, lemon juice, chickpeas, and scallions. In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the spaghetti until al dente. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the pasta cooking water. Add the spaghetti and the reserved pasta water to the sauce, season generously with salt and pepper, and toss to coat.
