BUYING WHOLE-GRAIN PASTAS

It’s easy to sub in higher fiber whole-wheat pasta for white, but it’s not always so easy to convince the family they’ll love it. Whole-wheat pastas can be gritty with a pronounced earthiness that may not suit their tastes. Here are a few standouts with great flavor and texture:

Wild Oats Whole Wheat Spaghetti (an organic food brand available at Walmart) and Market Pantry Whole Wheat Spaghetti (Target’s house brand) Light, delicate texture and milder, more neutral flavor. Great stand-ins for traditional white pasta.

Barilla Whole Grain Spaghetti Wheaty, nutty, and pleasantly chewy. For those who enjoy the earthy flavor of whole grains.

Lundberg Brown Rice Spaghetti Thin, elegant, delicate, and perfect for veggie sauces.

Barilla Whole Grain Lasagne Earthy and nutty with a hearty chew. Great for a meat sauce.

Bionaturae Whole Wheat Lasagne Thin but sturdy, mild flavor, no bitterness. Lighter in color (so easier to get buy-in from the family).
