Explore Cuisine Edamame and Mung Bean Fettuccine, Delicious Low Carb, Plant-based Vegan Pasta, High in Protein, High in Fibre, Gluten Free, Easy to Cook 6 Pack - 6 x 200g

This product is a very good alternative to traditional pasta. It contains much less Carbs tan the traditional pasta but it is equally tasty and goes well with a simple tomato sauce or tuna sauce :-)

Put half a teaspoonful of dried thyme (5g) and 5 twists from the pepper grinder into a pan with 300g of water. Bring water to a boil. Add 3g of Marigold Original and 5g of Marigold Reduced Salt bouillon powder. (Together - less salty, more flavourful.) Throw the bouillon powder straight into the boiling water - helps eliminate lumps (although they do eventually dissolve). Add 25g of broken-up Explore Cuisine Fettuccine. Simmer for 15 mins. Makes 250g of ready-to-eat pasta soup. Breaking up the dry fettuccine into small pieces before cooking means the soup can be eaten with just a spoon. I tried adding some butter during cooking to add richness but it just doesn't really need it. Very tasty and surprisingly filling, possibly due to the 10.6g of protein and only 2.8g of carbs. Just over 103 kcals all in. Have been using this low carbohydrate Explore Cuisine Fettuccine for about five months now and given up regular pasta completely. Glad to have discovered it - very edible and satisfying. No going back now! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Marigold Original = 240 kcals / 100g.

If you are looking for an alternative to pasta that is low carb, these are a good choice. I would check the dating when you receive the box. They are quite watery once drained and sitting so I would keep them in a strainer until ready to use. The taste and texture is right on along with the suggested cooking time. Cost wise they are pricey and sometimes I can find them in our local health food store for less.

Just a genuine 5 start product. Tastes good, good texture, holds well, extremely high protein content, vegan. Great stuff!

High protein, easy, quick to cook & tastes great, very happy

Great for boosting your fibre and protein intake. Same look and texture as wheat pasta, the taste is a matter of personal preference, but with a tasty sauce you don’t notice much difference.

I am surprised at how pleasant this is. I was looking to increase both fibre and protein, this is perfect. I bought a single packet to try but after trying it ordered a pack of 6, which is much better value.

This is easy enough to cook (add to boiling water, simmer for 5-7 mins, drain, add sauce) and I like that it’s a high protein gluten free option which feels nutritionally superior to gf options made with rice and corn. BUT, personally I didn’t enjoy the texture: it’s oddly chewy, more like the no-frills vegan chicken strips you can buy, than any pasta I’ve ever had before. Requires A LOT of chewing. It also has an unappetising murky colour when cooked and it’s not as inherently tasty as red lentil, pea or even chickpea pasta, in my opinion... I suppose in terms of flavour, this makes for a good neutral base for sauces but sadly I couldn’t get past the texture. If you're tempted to cook it for longer in the hopes it will improve the texture, it won't: the fettuccine just breaks apart into mush and you'll still be left with the same, chewy texture.
