Healthy and delicious
Since I had to reduce my intake of carbs, I searched for a healthy alternative to regular pasta. This is a great pasta made from red lentils. After some experimenting I have chosen a cooking method that works VERY well for taste, texture and multiple uses. I cook the pasta in stock, either vegetable or chicken. Because I am strapped for time [and lazy] I cook the pasta in the microwave for 16 minutes, the results are wonderful.Healthy and delicious this pasta was a great find for me.

Accept them for what they are. Do not expect them to cook and taste like traditional pasta.
My family tried these for medical reasons (my daughter cannot eat wheat, and we do not allow wheat products in our house). I am now a faithful customer because these provide me with a satisfying meal, at a reasonable cost, with a lot of health benefits (low sodium, low fat, no cholesterol, lots of fiber, and no blood sugar spike after eating them).As a lifelong pasta fanatic who has had to abstain for a couple of years now, I can say the following: If you are expecting these to cook and taste like wheat pasta, you will probably be disappointed. Instead, you really need to accept them for what they are -- pasta-shaped objects made out of lentils. And that's good enough. I find that if I drown these in spaghetti sauce, they make a tasty and easily-prepared hot lunch, and they take care of my craving for traditional pasta.As with any other high-fiber food, if you don't already eat a relatively high-fiber diet, you will want to go easy on the quantity until your digestion adapts to the fiber.

The taste not so amazing anymore!
I love the taste, texture, and nutritional value of this pasta! Although I found out that I can buy the Lentil pasta a little cheaper in the grocery store, if this company maintains its current price, I will continue to purchase this pasta from Bentilia (this company) and not from the supermarket.UpdateThe last batch appears different in texture. I not sure I will purchase this product again.

Best lentil pasta on the market
We have used this pasta for years. Works especially good in a pressure cooker. It makes a creamy sauce all by itself for my chicken soup. I wish I could get in even bigger package. We are never without this pasta in our house, as my husband is gluten free. It takes like semolina pasta, unlike other lentil pastas.

Healthy pasta alternative - We're hooked!
These rotini cook up to al-dente in about 12 minutes. They are nearly indiscernable from wheat pasta (except for the color) when mixed with sauce. They are MUCH healthier than wheat pasta. If you overcook them, they get pretty mushy and inedible.You can cook them, and then cool them to chemically change the starch to "resistant" starch. Then reheat them or make macaroni salad, or whatever you want. The resistant starch is lesss "carby" than the original starch structure, and will not be as impactful to your blood sugar..

Not much flavor, but healthy.
Lentils are really good for you. That’s why I bought these. They do not taste as good as black bean, black soy or edamame pasta, but they are good for you. Actually, they would probably be great for those who like white plain pasta, as they have little to no flavor on their own.

Fabulous
I am the pickiest eater I know. I won't even eat lettuce. Seriously, this is the best. Even without sauce it is good. Your kids will not even know a difference. It is delicious and healthy.

... it is a lentil pasta- I thought it was better than other brands that I have tried
Considering it is a lentil pasta- I thought it was better than other brands that I have tried. The flavor and texture was more pleasant than other brands as well. The cooked pasta is also not as bad rewarmed, the other brand was not as tasty when rewarmed. I was a little nervous buying a 5-lb box without trying out first, but I am not disappointed at all about this pasta.
