Low Fat Low Calorie pasta recipes?

If you want low fat, low cal pick something other than pasta or anything with a sauce.
You can reduce by comparison but never get low.

You can reduce the calories/fat by making substitutions. Use ground turkey instead of hamburger, use low-fat cottage cheese instead of real[my recipe uses cottage cheese] or ricotta.
Make your own sauce and use sugar substitute instead of the real thing. Find some recipes that are more veggie than cheese and meat.

Whole-Wheat Spaghetti with Lemon, Basil, and Salmon
serves 4
* 1/2 pound whole-wheat spaghetti pasta
* 1 clove garlic, minced
* 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
* 1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more for seasoning
* 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more for seasoning
* 1 tablespoon olive oil
* 4 (4-ounce) pieces salmon
* 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves
* 3 tablespoons capers
* 1 lemon, zested
* 2 tablespoons lemon juice
* 2 cups fresh baby spinach leaves

Directions

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain pasta and transfer to a large bowl. Add the garlic, extra-virgin olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss to combine.

Meanwhile, warm the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Season the salmon with salt and pepper. Add the fish to the pan and cook until medium-rare, about 2 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fish. Remove the salmon from the pan.

Add the basil, capers, lemon zest, and lemon juice to the spaghetti mixture and toss to combine. Set out 4 serving plates or shallow bowls. Place 1/2 cup spinach in each bowl. Top with 1/4 of the pasta. Top each mound of pasta with a piece of salmon. Serve immediately.

Whole-Wheat Pasta with Broccolini and Feta
serves 4
* 1 medium shallot, thinly sliced
* 1 bunch broccolini (about 10 ounces), stems cut into 2-inch stems, and florets
* 1 medium bunch radishes, trimmed and very thinly sliced
* 12 ounces whole-wheat rigatoni
* 1 tablespoon sherry wine vinegar
* 1/2 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
* 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more as needed
* Freshly ground black pepper
* 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
* 7 ounces feta cheese, crumbled

Directions

Put the shallots in a bowl and cover with cold water. Soak for about 10 minutes; drain.

Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it generously. Fill a medium bowl with ice water and salt it as well. Add the broccolini to the boiling water and cook until crisp-tender, about 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the radish slices, and cook 30 seconds, more. Use a slotted spoon or strainer to scoop out the vegetables and plunge them immediately into the ice water. Drain the vegetables, pat them very dry.

Add the pasta to the same pot of boiling water, and cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, about 8 to 9 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Whisk the sherry vinegar, orange zest, the 3/4 teaspoon salt and pepper, to taste, in a large serving bowl. Gradually whisk in the oil, starting with a few drops and then adding the rest in a steady stream, to make a dressing.

Toss the rigatoni, broccolini, radish and shallot with the dressing. Add the feta cheese and toss lightly. Serve warm or room temperature.

Whole-Grain Pasta with Chick Peas and Escarole
serves 4
* 2 cups whole-grain penne
* 1 head escarole, roughly chopped
* 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more to taste
* 1/4 cup capers, drained and patted dry (optional)
* 5 cloves garlic, sliced
* 1/2 cup roughly chopped fresh parsley
* 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
* 1 28-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes, crushed slightly,
* liquid reserved
* 1 15.5-ounce can chickpeas, drained, rinsed and patted dry
* Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
* 2 bay leaves
* 1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese, plus more for garnish

Directions

Cook the pasta according to the package directions; add the escarole during the last 2 minutes, cover and do not stir. Remove the escarole with tongs; set aside. Drain the pasta, reserving 1/2 cup cooking liquid. Meanwhile, if you’re using capers, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the capers and fry until crisp, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate.

Add the remaining 3 tablespoons oil to the skillet. Cook the garlic, parsley and red pepper flakes until the garlic toasts slightly, 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, chickpeas, a pinch of salt and the bay leaves. Cook until the tomatoes and chickpeas brown, about 6 minutes. Add the escarole and reserved tomato juice and cook until the sauce thickens slightly, about 4 more minutes. Remove and discard the bay leaves.

Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss with the sauce; season with salt and pepper. (If the sauce is thick, add some reserved pasta water.) Stir in the cheese and top with fried capers, if using, and more cheese.
