Explore Cuisine Organic Black Bean Spaghetti: Gluten Free Pasta High in Protein and Fibre, Perfect for Vegan, Low Carb and Keto Diets (6 x 200g)

These and the edamame variety are now our go-to noodles to use in stir-fries. They're tasty, hold their shape and are high in protein and low in carbs. What more can we ask for? They don't work, for us at least, as an alternative to wheat spaghetti in a Bolognese sauce, but are fantastic in stir-fries.

I've been following a high protein nutrition plan for a while to support my training goals and saw these recommended on a YouTube so I thought I'd give them a go. I'm an instant convert! Quick to cook, only take about 5 mins in the pan, and whilst a little different in texture to regular pasta, they taste great and I've been using them on a regular basis to get a quick meal in with a decent protein boost. A bit pricey if bought individually, but as a 6-pack pretty good value for money. Definitely recommended for the health conscious looking for a low carb/high protein alternative to regular pasta.

If you want to know what it's like, there is a definite earthy flavour from the beans and it is chewy, even when overcooked. Its slightly rough texture sticks well to sauces, just remember to rinse it so the earthy flavour doesn't overpower the sauce too much. Don't try eating it cold as it's a bit unpleasant but it is far better than most low carb/high protien pastas I've had. As a vegetarian, I like how I can get some extra fiber and protien in my diet in something as simple as tomato mascarpone sauce. I don't mind the flavour and enjoy the chewyness.

Great product at a good price. Delivered promptly.

Absolutely delicious, versatile and easy to cook.

Easy to use and keeping my blood sugar low.

Well - they are OK as a low carb substitute. But why does all the healthiest stuff have to be so much more expensive! Taste isn’t that great either, it’s Ok, but just OK. So far I have found the green stuff tastes a bit better. Every now and then we have proper wholewheat spaghetti - just to remind us how much better the cheap, unhealthy stuff tastes.

The taste and the consistency are good. Uncooked the spaghetti looked fragile but it does not disintegrate when cooked, it retains texture and consistency.
