Product Rave: Brown rice pasta
It's not a new find for me but I thought I'd share in case some of you haven't heard of it.
Anyone ever try brown rice pasta? It's so delicious.....100x better tasting than whole wheat pasta.

Re: Product Rave: Brown rice pasta
never heard of it, but it sounds interesting. Where did you find it?
Do you cook it like rice or like pasta?

Re: Product Rave: Brown rice pasta
So it's pasta made from brown rice?? I have never seen this-- what brand makes it, and did you get it at the supermarket, or a specialty store?
Most importantly, what are the nutritionals on it?

Re: Product Rave: Brown rice pasta
It's made by Tinkyada and I mostly buy it at Stop & Shop. They have it with the organic foods not with the regular pasta.
It's wheat free, cholesterol free gluten-free. It's made of stone-ground brown rice, rice bran and water...that's it. It has 2 grams of fat, 43grams of carbs, 2 dietary fibers and 4 grams of protein. It's a bit expensive but we don't have pasta often so to me it's worth it. They sell it in both organic and non-organic forms.

Re: Product Rave: Brown rice pasta
Thanks for the info...
If you like that-- I use brown rice in the same way that I use pasta. Mix it with some tomato sauce and veggie meatballs, or whatever else you want to use and it's the same as pasta to me, and very filling. You should try that and see how you like it, especially if the brown rice pasta is expensive.

You cook it like pasta. It takes about 15 minutes.

I've never really used "brown rice" itself in the way I used pasta. I'll give it a shot though. Thanks!

Anyone ever try brown rice pasta? It's so delicious.....100x better tasting than whole wheat pasta.
I had a hard time finding a whole wheat pasta I liked for a long time. I recently tried the organic whole wheat penne from TJ (comes in a plastic bag) and it is FABULOUS!

I never tried that one. I love pasta so it's definitely worth a try. I like to have a variety of options.

I bought the whole wheat pasta from Trader Joe's too and it was really good. I was afraid to taste it because the last couple of times we got WW pasta in the supermarket it tasted like cardboard. Even my picky DH liked the WW pasta from TJ. I also tried the brown rice pasta from TJ but it was a bit too stickly for me.
