Banza Shells & White Cheddar Mac and Cheese - High Protein, Gluten Free, and Lower Carb Protein Mac and Cheese - 5.5oz

My favorite healthy pasta. Tastes as good as regular pasta.

I love the Banza Mac and cheese for meals when it is just me but I do not feel like cooking. I like the texture and the flavor of these. I cannot find them in a local store, so I continue to order them from Amazon. I have celiac disease and follow a strict gluten free diet, however, I also have a rice allergy so finding pasta that doesn't make me feel awful is hard to find! I will say of my 3 children in my house, one of them does not like these noodles. However, if offered to the other two, they will eat them. (I love them, so I think it's about individual taste buds.)

Ok, I tampered my expectations when ordering this. I knew it wasn’t going to be an equal replacement to traditional macaroni and cheese, but it’s decent enough as a healthier replacement. The only thing that isn’t as satisfying as a regular noodle is the tougher texture since they are made with chickpeas, even if I cook them past “al dente.” I don’t notice them to be hard to digest or any stomach upset after consuming even a whole box at once.

I really love this pasta. It is a great GF alternative and provides the protein boost I look for. I’m not gluten free so I can not verify the celiac safety of the product but the taste is really good.

My son loves them

I'm not sure what to think. No, it's not as good as pasta....but thr flavor is good and the texture isn't overall disgusting. That being said...it's higher in calories than regular pasta...but also higher in protein? Idk...regular pasta isn't bad for you....maybe just eat that in moderation. But if you really want an alternative...I actually like these. 3 stars may be low...but I don't know. I just don't see the benefits. The quality is solid.

This is the best tasting gluten free pasta we've found -- doesn't fall apart or get mushy when cooked -- has a low g index -- and the white cheddar sauce is delicious. It's appropriate for those with celiac disease or diabetes, but especially for those with both.

Taste great.
