Who doesn't like pasta
We cook pasta alot during the fall and winter. This pasta was perfect for my kids. I just add tomato sauce and they ate it.

Catelli Super Green Fusili
I tried this product as part of the family rated review opportunity (received for free). Personally I did not like it and it tasted a bit grainy. My husband and one year old did not mind it at all.
It cooked easily and quickly which was good
There was a bit of an unfavourable flavour to the pasta, so I would not use it with a milder sauce, but with a better sauce it is good. I like the extra nutrient value.
Received Catelli Supergreens Fusilli pasta free from ChickAdvisor and it was ok. My family didn't like the fact that it was green and didn't want to try it because they thought it would taste "healthy" and not yummy. Picky eaters. I thought, for pasta it did have a stronger taste but didn't mind it too much as I added butter and crumbled feta cheese which offset some of the "healthy" flavours. Price wise, it is more expensive, but I guess you get what you pay for as it is supposed to be much healthier for you. I didn't feel any different after eating it, certainly not healthier but how is one meal going to make a difference? Would probably not buy again unless they are discounting it at a super low price.
Love that there is a better alternative to the normal carb pasta! I received this package of pasta to review from ChickAdvisor in exchange for my review. It is noce to have the added veggies in a pasta since kids love it and don't notice a difference!
I got to try this product for free from Chick Advisor. While I like the concept in theory, the reality leaves much to be desired. This barely tasted like pasta, all I could taste was I don't even know what - spinach or something unpleasant (I hate spinach) and my kids absolutely refused to eat it after 2 bites, said it was just yucky - and they absolutely love pasta. Maybe under a lot of sauce one might mistake it for pasta, but my kids only have it plain, so unfortunately this isn't going to work for us. Will definitely not be purchasing again.
When I received this box to review my inital thought was to make a pasta salad (that didn't happen), so I made it with red sauce one night. I find the tasta and texture to not be the same as regular pasta and although it was still good, my husband and my kids weren't overly impressed with it, and he said it wasen't the greatest.
Again as with some pasta brands out there I find this to be a bit too pricey. I am willing to pay for pricey things if its enjoyable and worth the money, but in this case I don't think it is. I think this might have tasted better as a pasta salad as I had originally wanted to make - but pasta (if its good) should taste good any way you make it.
Would I buy this pasta - No I think there are better ones on the market with the same benefits that are better. It was ok.
I had high hopes for this product as I love pasta and would love to have an option that has so many vitamins, nutrients and greens in it. It was really too good to be true. The product was easy to prepare and cooked just like regular pasta. However I was not a fan of the taste of this pasta. I found that it really does have the taste of too much kale and vegetables. I eat a ton of vegetables but this was not a good and natural taste. I did not like the texture much either and just found the overall it was not a good flavour for the pasta - even with a heavy red sauce. It was just not for me.
I received this product free as a chick advisor. #igotitfree #trycatelli
I cooked this on a busy weeknight hoping my kids wouldn't notice the green colour but unfortunately it caused them to grimace at first. It was refreshing and filled with lots of substance but I am not sure it is the best fit for my family of picky eaters. It may be something I try down the way with a meat & tomato sauce instead of beans/cucumber, green onions and avocado. Nice to have an option anyway!
I would keep an eye out for it on sale but wouldn't likely buy it if reg price.
