Pastabilities, Protein Pasta, Penne - 24g Protein & Low Carb, 17g Net Carbs - High Protein, Delicious Taste & Texture Non-GMO Plant-Based Pasta, Keto Friendly, Vegan (8 Ounce, 2 Pack)

This is my first low carb, high protein pasta so I'm rating this based on how I feel both in comparison to regular pasta and what I imagined it to be. It's definitely much better than I thought! Seriously pleasantly surprised and it doesn't break the bank. I did some research and review comparisons between the most popular high protein pastas and so many had bad reviews about texture, taste, mushiness/falling apart and yes even though it's not exactly the texture of regular pasta, it's so much closer than I thought it would be! It also has more protein and less carbs than other more popular high protein pastas so for those macro conscious, this is a huge deal. The flavor and smell is almost exactly like pasta. I really enjoy the al dente pasta mouth feel (maybe even just a tad firm) so I cooked it for 11 min. instead of the rec 12-13 and for me it's a good chew but prob just a little too firm for most people. I think I'll try 12 min. next time just to see the difference, but it's a nice al dente nonetheless, not mushy, holds together, not chalky/grainy/crumbly. I don't remember the last time I had whole wheat pasta, but it might be similar in texture to that, okay but maybe not even, I don't know because it's pretty darn close to regular pasta I'm telling you! Overall definitely a 5-star for me and I'm not one of those health nuts who is no longer able to tell "pretty good" from cardboard. I'm kind of scared to try other brands so I'll stick to this for a while. Give it a try!

I was very skeptical of this pasta because every alternative to regular pasta that I've tried has not really been satisfying. This is actually quite good though. I can only barely tell the difference. It satisfies my pasta craving while giving me a little less guilt!

I am a vegan and eat bean pasta (edamame) probably 5 days a week due to its high protein content. While I enjoy it, it really does not taste like regular pasta and in not particularly good with traditional tomato sauces. This product is much closer to regular pasta and excellent with tomato sauce while giving you very high levels of protein.

This penne is pretty good, it's firm and chewy compared to traditional pasta. It definitely tastes different, but it's not a bad alternative.

A waste of money and meal. Too expensive to taste this bad . Doesn’t cook well and not a good product. Do not buy.

It’s not easy to find a good protein pasta, most have bad texture or odd flavor. This one is actually great tasting and texture is perfect!

Great taste. Made pasta salad and baked ziti using them. Worth it for the reasonable carbs and protein boost. You can only drink so many shakes and eat so many protein bars before you want some real food!

Cooked based on instructions. The texture and flavor is odd. It does take some time getting used to but it’s great with a pasta sauce. Like that it has a good amount of protein.
