When it comes to meal planning, I am always on the lookout for new
and innovative food products designed around healthy eating, ease of preparation and overall goodness. It is also very important
to my family that it tastes good too. During the summer months, I find I have a lot less time for cooking and will turn to
things like pastas and vegetable mixtures as they check off all the boxes.
I recently came across a new pasta product that is not only a healthy choice, but also tastes great too. Chickapea Pasta is gluten-free, certified organic, vegan and contains no preservatives.
You can feel guilt free as it contains only two ingredients, organic chickpeas and lentils.
On there own, I am not really a fan of chickpeas, but I must confess,
I really liked this pasta. Chickapea Pasta is high in protein, fibre and is a great source of iron as well.
Available in three different styles; spirals, penne and shells.
For
those of you concerned about fitness and well being, this is definitely the pasta choice for you. 23 grams of protein per
serving as well as 40% of your recommended daily iron intake, makes Chickapea Pasta a sensible choice.
I think we can all agree that simple meals are the ones we gravitate
towards as they leave more quality time for the family. It is also important to make sure that we are still making healthy
choices.
Chickapea Pasta's promise to you, the consumer,
is to always have your family's best interest at heart. Their philosophy is quite simple really. Give their customers a
healthy choice, that doesn't add sugar or artificial flavours. So many foods today are being massed produced and tend to
be genetically modified as well. Shelby Taylor, the brainchild of Chickapea Pasta researched the potential ingredients for
more than a year and a half. She was intent on putting in only the best available. Her passion and determination has resulted
in a very tasty pasta that everyone will enjoy. Check out Chickapea Pasta's Facebook page for some very simple recipe ideas.
