Love it

Catelli Protein+ Penne Pasta is a healthy and tasty option for people who want more protein in their meals. It’s made from durum wheat and plant-based proteins like chickpeas, lentils, and peas. Each serving has 17 grams of protein and 8 grams of fiber, which makes it more filling and better for your health than regular pasta.
The taste and texture are very similar to regular penne. It cooks well and holds sauces nicely. Most people say they can’t tell the difference, which is great for picky eaters or families trying to eat healthier.
It’s vegan, non-GMO, and easy to find in most grocery stores in Canada.

Penne perfectly made dinner!

Penne is great to make with my pesto. I made a pesto chicken penne which my family totally love. They also appreciate the extra protein in the pasta. It didn’t taste heavy for them and the pasta has the right bounce to the texture.

Love it

I tried this pasta as an alternative to the regular one and homemade loved it. Did not expect the taste to be the same, but it really was. Never not felt bloated from pasta - that was a first!

A family favorite!

Pasta night just got a protein upgrade!

I'm a pasta enthusiast and this Catelli Protein+ is EXACTLY what I've been waiting for!

I love it because Catelli Protein+ gives you 17g of plant-based protein per serving. It's made with peas, chickpeas, and lentils, but with that classic pasta taste we all love.

My family couldn't taste the difference. It was delicious and the entire family enjoyed the meal.

As a mom of four, I love that it's ready in under 10 minutes. The kids finished their plates without any fuss. It's a family favorite!

Perfect pasta with extra protein

Received the Catelli protein pasta to try and really loving it so far. It’s made with great ingredients, has loads of protein and it tastes fantastic. I used it to make a penne alfredo and it cooked up like regular pasta and was easy to incorporate into the dish. The whole family enjoyed it and couldn’t wait for more pasta creations!

Delicious!

This pasta is delicious. Tastes like normal pasta, but with the added benefit of protein. It takes only a few minutes to cook to perfect. Not too startchy and reheats well. My new favourite!

Just the same as the OG ones!

As someone who values both nutrition and taste in my daily meals, I am always seeking smart alternatives that support a healthier lifestyle without sacrificing flavor. Pasta is a staple in my kitchen, and as much as I enjoy cooking a variety of dishes, I also have specific dietary needs. With a fast metabolism and long work hours, I prioritize meals that are both satisfying and nutritionally balanced—especially those that are rich in protein.
Catelli’s new Protein+ line offers a promising solution. Each serving provides 17 grams of plant-based protein, sourced from chickpeas, lentils, and peas. From a nutritional standpoint, this is a strong offering, especially for individuals looking to increase their protein intake through plant-based sources.
What truly impressed me, however, was the taste and texture. Often, high-protein or alternative pastas suffer from noticeable differences in texture or an aftertaste that detracts from the eating experience. This was not the case with Catelli Protein+. The pasta closely mirrors the taste and mouthfeel of traditional varieties—no graininess, no odd flavors. Just clean, familiar comfort food.
Available in three classic shapes—penne rigate (which I tested), elbows, and spaghetti—the line is versatile and convenient. The penne cooks to an ideal al dente in just 9 minutes, making it a practical option for quick meals that do not compromise on nutrition. It can be used in a variety of meals, from comfort food to more glamourous meals.
As someone who is discerning when it comes to pasta, I found this product to be an excellent balance of taste, quality, and nutritional benefit. The added protein is especially helpful during physically demanding or long workdays, and the fact that the product is Non-GMO and Certified Vegan makes it even more appealing.
