I am not too sure about the Ancient grains , it was a bit bland in my opinion , not what I am used to for catelli . I will try it again but I prefer the original catelli and the smart veggie .

I find in needed more spaghetti sauce then the other varieties do , I think it would best be suited for a nice pasta salad not a fan of it with a spaghetti setting

I received this product free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. I found the taste to be a bit off. Though, I still felt better eating it because I knew it was a lot healthier for me than white pasta noodles. I just used a simple red sauce for this one with chopped peppers and some spices. I'm not sure if I will be adding this to our weekly dinner menu, but I will definitely consider it when i'm planning a pasta night.

I defiantly enjoyed this more than I thought I would - Thank you for the sample as I most likely would not have strayed from my standard grocery list purchases.

Since I am a ChickAdvisor I received the Catelli Ancient Grains Rotini for free. I was quite exited to try this product. My family eats pasta about once a week so this was right up our alley. I did not use the recipe on the catd that came with the kit. It just wasn't something that I knew we would like. I did however use a sundried tomato pesto and added extra sundried tomatoes to the finished product. I also served it with chicken breast and fresh garden salad to complete the meal. The past has a slight nutty taste to it which nobody in my family complained about (surprisingly) . I did find that I had to cook the pasta for about 1.5-2 minutes longer that the box said in order to get it to el dente. It holds its shape nicely still tasted good as leftovers the next day again without going soggy. My youngest child liked his meal so much that he asked for it to be sent in his lunch the next day! This ancient grain pasta is a great way to get more whole grains into your family maybe without them even knowing. I do however think that it needs a sauce to make it more pasta push in flavour, I didn't mind the taste without sauce but my family thought it definitely required sause. I would buy again for sure especially if there was a sale!

I got this product free from chick advisor, I didn't tell the kids we were trying something different and they ate it up none the wiser. The texture was great

Thanks ChickAdvisor for the free try of Catelli Ancient Grains Pasta! Made the Pasta as a side dish - kids thought it was great - can definitely tell this is not a white pasta - the texture is much different - less smooth. Taste wise we felt that it has a deeper, almost nutty flavor - much more filling than white pasta - We would likely purchase this again - I think I would use in a pasta centered dish - the Catelli Ancient Grains Pasta would be great with Pesto, or as a Primavera.

Bon goût,tout le monde à aimé les pâtes. Le goût est standard mais délicieux. Peu cher, pratique pour cuire lorsqu'on est pressé par le temps. Je recommande.
