Chick pea pasta

[kittykatja85 34]

So, we went shopping today since I hit solids at the end of the week and my husband has to lose weight as well, and I found Banza chickpea Pasta. Has anyone tried it? I bought a box for my husband to try because it's packed with Protein.

Careful with that stuff...it's better than wheat or rice Pasta but if you are watching carbs it has over 30 for just 2oz. I think a much better choice for Pasta would be something that's not processed like spiralized zucchini or spaghetti squash. I use both and the entire family loves either of them....the kids like the spaghetti squash a bit more than the zucchini and they actually didn't know it wasn't pasta the first time until I let them know.

I know everyone has varying opinions on this, but my goal post-op has been to stay away from processed foods as much as humanly possible. If it comes in a box, I tend to leave it on the shelf! I have stuck to natural, whole foods and haven't counted carbs or calories...in fact the only thing I've counted is Protein to make sure I'm getting enough and so far it's worked amazingly.
