Whole Wheat Spaghetti w/ Mussels

One of my faves love love seafood  and there is nothing better than a good Spaghetti w/ Mussels for dinner. Also if you want to add more seafood into this recipe you can :) especially shrimp !!!


INGREDIENTS

1 lb whole wheat spaghetti
1 lb fresh mussels
1 can baby oysters
5 cloves chopped garlic
1 diced fresh tomato
1 whole lemon
5 T olive oil
1 cup white wine
salt and pepper to taste

In a pan sautee the garlic then add the rest of the ingredients except for the spaghetti and mussels. Add the whole juice of the lemon as well as the rind. When it boils add the mussels cover it until it is done then add the cooked spaghetti... When it comes to whole wheat pasta you have to check the ingredients of the package that it says whole wheat, whole grain or whole durum. The reason i am telling you this because some will say whole wheat but actually they are just 51% whole wheat ...
