Pros & Cons
Pros
Love that barilla pasta. Penne is our favorite pasta and barilla makes the best penne. Use this barilla penne with a red sauce, a white sauce or in a pasta salad.
The texture of these noodles is fantastic. If you cook them to al dente (the same bite as you'd get out of wheat noodles), they have a very pleasing feedback on the teeth. Unlike other brands of red lentil pasta that break down with normal cooking, th... Read More
Cons
The only ingredient in this pasta is red lentil flour. It also has a starchy taste to me. Even after boiling the pasta for about ten minutes it remains very firm and tasteless.

Highlights
Quality
Good quality pasta, easy to cook up.
I trust barilla for taste and superb quality.
It was super hard and i had to microwave it in water for a few minutes.
I am not a white flour lover, and try to avoid any products made with it.

Great price great quality handy fast meal
Great value for the number of boxes includedstandard penne pasta
Buy if it’s the least expensive option
The price is much higher, but when you need a bowl of penne and it's not allowed, this might alleviate the cravings.
Packaging/appearance
Being only a single ingredient noodle packed with protein and carbs should help people meet their daily nutritional requirements.
Suggestions on the package were to add vegetables with a light sauce or butter.
Cook as directed on box and you can't go wrong

Unlike other brands of red lentil pasta that break down with normal cooking, these are much more robust.

I've tried saving a few pennies by opting for cheaper brands, but the superior quality of barilla for just $0.
