I received this Catelli Protein+ Spaghetti Pasta for free from Butterly to try and share an honest review.
I am not a chef! And I like meals that are quick and easy. The pasta took just 6 minutes until al dente - cooked it just like the box said and made it into a cheeseburger casserole. I honestly couldn't tell the difference! The taste and texture were identical to standard pasta. If anything it actually held the sauce much nicer than standard spaghetti!
I am all for added protein to feel full longer, and the fact that its 17g plant-based proteins from chickpeas, lentils, and peas per serving, plus 8g of fibre means it will make you feel much more satisifed.
If you're trying to eat healthier, its a great option - vegan, non-GMO certified, and really easy to find in most grocery stores across Canada. I can't wait to give the spaghetti and penne a try!

I am not a chef! And I like meals that are quick and easy. The pasta took just 9 minutes until al dente - cooked it just like the box said and served it with my from scratch alfredo sauce, chicken and broccolini. I honestly couldn't tell the difference! The taste and texture were identical to standard pasta. If anything it actually held the sauce much nicer than standard penne!

I get breakouts often and I’m always looking for different ways to treat and take care of them. I gave these PanOxyl overnight patches a try for free thanks to Butterly! Very easy to use and apply, and they stuck very well to my skin creating a barrier to keep the breakout protected from bacteria while the benzoyl peroxide helps clean it out. They conveniently work their magic while you sleep - but they are also subtle enough to wear throughout the day, with or without make-up!

I’m a big fan of Aveeno’s cracked skin line so when I was offered the opportunity to try the Calm and Restore Nourishing Line I had to give it a shot! I have sensitive skin so not many products work for me. I have Keratosis pilaris on my arms so I thought I would give it a try. I have been using it on and off for about a week now and I have seen a noticeable difference! The bumps are much smoother, and even the scarring on my elbows from childhood injuries have diminished! Highly recommend! -

This ice cream is quite tasty! The brown butter ice cream is super rich, almost a similar richness as maple flavour. The cookie bits inside add fun to every bite! I really enjoyed the combination of the oatmeal, chocolate chunk and chocolate! Every bite gives a different combination of flavours and textures! The ice cream is very smooth and rich and very delicious! -

Locally I was only able to obtain the sticks and not the bricks however the product, after researching is identical! Our family are big butter lovers - we use real butter in all recipes! I am the big baker in our family so I was really looking forward to trying this product. My first use was baking cookies! It required the butter to melted and it melted very evenly and mixed well into the recipe. The cookies were rich and tasted no different than using regular butter! We also melted some of this butter to eat on our nightly snack of popcorn and it was just the right amount of salt! I definitely recommend this butter for those who cannot consume dairy (I have an intolerance so this was convenient) or for vegetarians. It’s even soft enough to mix into recipes right from the fridge - although I prefer to have at room temperature anyways. It would definitely spread well on toast! -

As an avid Starbucks Chai Tea Latte drinker, I purchased this product to try to save some money by buying this to make them at home! The product instructions are super simple - mix the tea concentrate with a milk product and heat! Makes a delicious Chai Tea Latte right at home! I’ve tried experimenting too - heating the milk first then adding the tea concentrate, trying other milk products (almond milk, etc) and I’ve loved it every way! Best way is heating the milk product, then frothing with a milk frother, then adding to the tea concentrate. Definitely will buy again. I love that you can save even more money by buying in a 3 pack at Costco! -

I received a free 30 pack from ChickAdvisor to test to see how it works with menstrual pain. As someone with strong period cramps, this couldn’t have come at a better time! I took one as soon as symptoms started and within about 10-15 minutes the pain started to dull. I wouldn’t say the pain disappeared entirely, but about 60-70% better than what it was! My only complaint is that the pills are quite round and large, I wish they were long and slender as I tend to feel them “stuck” in my throat a bit! Thanks ChickAdvisor! -
