Barilla Ready Pasta, Rotini, 7 oz. Pouch (pack of 7)

I really appreciate the ease of preparation for this pasta. A quick zap in the microwave, a sprinkle of nooch (nutritional yeast), and it's ready to eat. This is perfect for a super quick lunch or dinner, and there's no pot to wash. I would describe the texture as dense which gives it a good mouth feel. The price is good too! I think this would be really delicious with sauce or chilled in a pasta salad. I highly recommend this easy to make and eat pasta!

Very good product. We could not tell the difference between this product and the typical pasta requiring boiling. It saves time and tedium in cooking. We served hot with pasta sauce but I think it will work very well in cold pasta salad.
