Great pasta substitute

I've used these off and on as a paleo substitute for pasta. Most often in the slow cooker, which seems to best convert the taste/smell to the desired dish you're trying to make from the seaweed smell of the  package.

I am enjoying eating Italian food without all the carbs.  Zucchini makes a great alternative to spaghetti and the SpiraLife makes it so easy.  I plan to order more to give as gifts.

We had this pasta with our usual pasta sauce and have to say, gluten free???? Really? We couldn't believe that it is gluten free because it tastes just like any other pasta. It makes the gluten free lifestyle a lot easier because I love pasta so it's great to find an alternative. I am very pleased with this and we will have this again.

I'm on a mission to cut out grain and low quality carbs for 8 weeks. This product is my favorite when replacing wheat pasta.
It's a delicious alternative for grain pasta. It cooks well and is best with veggie sauces, Marinara or Bolognese, in my mind.
It has good consistency and flavor for cold pasta salads as well.

These noodles cook al dente and are very filling without all the carbs of traditional pasta. We have tried many noodle substitutes and these are the best by far.

Tastes great and is fairly comparable nutritionally to whole wheat pasta (which I find unpalatable). Only downside is that they sell it in 12 oz. packages.

I just used my new spiral slicer last night to make zucchini noodles. It was so easy. It took three small zucchini to make enough for 2 people. The only down side was the last inch or so of the zucchini wouldn't go through the slicer even with the lid but I just chopped it up and added to noodles. I saut&eacute;ed a few minutes in olive oil and salt and pepper. The zucchini noodles are so tasty. I'm a vegetarian and tend to eat a lot of carbs so this gives me a great alternative to regular pasta. My husband loved them too. The spiralizer was very easy to clean. I can't wait to try more recipes.

This is the best pasta substitute that I have tried so far (the others being green lentil, red lentil, brown rice, wheat pasta, and "fortified" white pasta). Make sure you don't overcook it, and also realize that you're eating beans, not wheat, so portions should be smaller.

I thought it was excellent.

This pasta tastes excellent and is half the calories of regular pasta. Also very high in fiber. What's not to like. Only warning is it does take a little longer to cook than regular pasta does. But not annoyingly so.

I am not a person who tends to like what I call alternative, replacement types of food, but I have to say, I really like this stuff. Is it exactly like regular pasta? NO, but the texture is very good and the taste is very nice. The flavor is WAY better than that wheat pasta with the bad after taste. None of that bad taste with this edamame spaghetti. Also if anyone is going to have a stomach or intestinal problem it is usually me, but I have no problem eating a full serving of this stuff. None. No pains, no gas. And it does keep you regular in a very healthy way. I have tried it by sauting onions and garlic (lots of garlic) in olive oil and adding chopped tomatoes, baby spinach, fresh basil, and fresh parsley. Just saut those for about a minute, just til spinach and herbs wilt, then toss with the cooked pasta. Add cooked chicken or shrimp. Delicious. I like it cooked and tossed with crunchy broccoli slaw or other premixed salad type stuff, throw on your favorite sauce, I use diabetic friendly teriyaki sauce. Again, add meat if you want. A couple of tips I've learned:  When cooked, drain quickly and rinse with very cold water. If your tap water is not cold enuf throw a few cubes of ice in a big glass of water and have it ready to rinse the spaghetti as soon as you pour it up. You do not want to overcook this pasta and I find it better if I stop the cooking immediately by having the ice water ready. Shake the colander good to get all the water off then toss with a bit of oil. The pasta seems to keep better while you finish cooking the topping for it. I use olive oil, vegetable, sesame, or other oil depending on what I'm serving with the spaghetti.  I found a kind of strange recipe called Peanut Butter Sauce on Spaghetti that actually tastes great with this edamame spaghetti tossed with broccoli slaw- very crunchy!!  I love it and would have never believed I'd eat that. Vodka Sauce with hamburger or turkey meatballs is also good with this pasta. I am Type 2 diabetic and even eating a full serving of this edamame spaghetti in all different recipes and my blood sugar is fine. I have not gone over 120 with any of these meals with edamame spaghetti. Also I find this spaghetti to be VERY filling. I am never hungry later after a meal of this pasta. Next I was thinking of chopping up the spaghetti into tiny pieces and tossing it in at the last 30 seconds of my stir fry. Then I can have fried rice again. Yeah!!! Try it. You'll like it!!!

My son loves this pasta. He is very limited in foods he will eat due to strong texture preferences so we try to sneak veggies and in as much as possible. This is a quick way to do that.

Good no carb substitute for high carb pasta. Slight fish odor.

Love this pasta. Macaroni and the other Barilla Plus products are just as good. After eating this you won't eat plain pasta again. They don't have the harsh taste of other healthy pasta products{wheat,spinach, etc.}. Great taste and good for you. Can't beat it.

Great replacement for wheat noodles. I ignore the spice packet and cook them in sea salt for a tasty side dish.

This is a great tasting pasta that is higher in fiber than most pastas, is low in fat and is not too high in carbohydrates. I am usually not a fan of whole wheat or whole grain pasta but this is really good.

My grandparents came from Italy so pasta has been part of my diet for years. I cut out a lot at one point because I was trying to stay away from white flour and carbohydrates.  I used whole wheat pasta at one point but I was not happy with the flavor.

This tastes great with a simple tomato sauce with garlic and onions. You don't have to smother the spaghetti with other flavors for it to taste good. I have used  turkey meatballs with this to make a really healthy meal.

The Nutrition Facts label says two ounces of this has 200 calories of which 15 are from fat (which is a good ratio), 1.5 grams of fat, 41 carbohydrates, 6 grams of fiber and 7 grams of protein. These are healthy numbers as far as I am concerned.

It seems like Barilla is trying to make pasta healthier and tastier. I have had healthy pasta that has not tasted so good. This is healthy and very good.
