Kaizen Low Carb Pasta, 20g High Protein, 6g Net Carb, Fusilli 8 Oz (3-Pack)

This pasta is amazing! I have tried a lot of low carb pasta and this has the best ingredients and macros!! The texture is really satisfying lol it’s firm but soft at the same time?? There is a slight bean flavor and doesn’t taste like traditional pasta but I love making Alfredo so I can’t tell with the sauce!! I highly recommended. It’s pricey but worth it for me.

First time I made this, I salted the water and cooked it about 8 or 9 mins - I was disappointed. Too salty and too mushy. Second time, I didn't add any salt and only let pasta boil for about a min or two before reducing to a simmer for 5 or 6 minutes more (7 in total). It was amazing in my recipe, which was adding the pasta to pre-made pasta sauce and a couple of table spoons of heavy cream powder. That's it. So good! I don't know how it will hold up in a pasta salad or if it's baked - but the way I made it was really good. Also, the portion size was enough for me, as I am trying to have my lighest meal for dinner. The price point is a little high when compared to regular pasta, but to eat what feels like a real pasta dish that doesn't spike my BS for $4.50 per serving is worth it for me.

It was pretty good and I mostly bought it for the low carbs and high fibre. I added a bit of pesto sauce, feta, a bit of seasoned oil. It’s a bit mushy but I probably boiled it too long. Yes the price is higher than regular pasta but one box gives you 4 servings.

I've tried a lot of alternative pastas and this one has become my clear favorite. The macros are outstanding, high protein, low carb, and a genuinely good amount of volume so you feel like you're able to eat a ton. I've used these for a Mediterranean pasta bake, on their own with no sauce (sue me, I'm both a foodie and a food is fuel type), and even in a kugel, and they held up beautifully in all three. Yes, there's a slight beany undertone that's noticeable if you're looking for it, but it doesn't bother me at all and fades into the background once it's sauced up. If you're craving pasta but trying to stay on track nutritionally, this hits. Super filling too, a little goes a long way. Probably don't eat the entire box in one day like I did, because that's a ton of beans

Cooked these up with garlic, olive oil, and crushed red pepper after a long day. Holds sauce in the grooves extremely well and delivers that traditional pasta feel.
