What Size is a Serving of Pasta?
Sorry!

A portion of pasta should only be about the size of an ice cream scoop. You also need to pay attention to your choice of sauces ... red sauces are low-fat while cream sauces are richer and more fattening. So ... choose marinara sauce instead of Alfredo and you might be able to get away with that softball-sized serving!
