Barilla Protein+ (Plus) Penne Pasta, 14.5 Ounce - plant based - Made from Lentils, Chickpeas & Peas - Non-GMO, Kosher Certified

These were very good. I browned mushroom, onions and an orange pepper. I tell you what, I under cooked ( aldente) then put in caramalized veg and mixed, really was so delicious! And protein to boot!

’ve bought this a few times now because it’s one of the only “protein pastas” my kids will actually eat without noticing a difference. It tastes way closer to regular pasta than chickpea pasta does, and the texture stays good even as leftovers. We use it for spaghetti, baked pasta, and mac and cheese style dinners. I also like that it adds a little extra protein without having to totally change what we normally eat. Definitely worth trying if you want an easier healthier swap that still feels like normal pasta.

Great pasta - cooks well - I like the added protein for the health benefits

Love the texture of the pasta. It holds together better than the plain chickpea pasta that I've tried in the past. I feel like I can enjoy pasta more often with this healthier option.

This protein and fiber rich pasta is excellent! Taste and texture as good or better than white pasta and not as dense as whole wheat pasta.

This penne pasta is a great option for quick dinners and baked dishes. The ridges help the sauce cling nicely, so every bite is flavorful. It cooks evenly and has a good texture if you follow the timing carefully. I’ve used it for pasta salads and casseroles with good results. On the downside, it can become soft if you overcook it even slightly, so you have to keep an eye on the pot. A few pieces were broken in the package too. Overall, it’s an affordable, reliable pasta that works well for everyday meals!

Tastes like any other pasta. Was surprised how similar it was to non-protein pastas. Texture and quality were good.

My favorite boxed pasta. Calories are worth the protein benefits. The texture is perfect tastes just like regular pasta. Holds up well al dente or well done.
