Great alternative to wheat pasta. Similar consistency but it’s made from lentils so a little more filling than wheat based pasta. Stick to the recommended cooking times and you’ll have a good result. Give it a try for yourself.

I cooked these and paired it with a butter, lemon sauce. Kept it very simple. The pasta itself is very filling but very hard. Maybe I really undercooked it but I got the impression it wouldn't soften up anyway. They are a little dry and hard but very filling. Will try them with a tomato sauce next time.

We love this product for it's:
Taste
wheat-free
It is still pricey. However, hopefully the price will come down with more demand.

This is my favourite red lentil pasta. The texture is very close to regular pasta, I can almost not believe it's made of lentils! It has a slightly different taste but cover it with sauce and you can't actually tell the difference. Delicious.
06/09/2022, By Sarah
Tasty low carb alternative - has texture like normal pasta
13/11/2021, By Mishka
Great taste but not hygenically packed. Unlikely that all would be cooked at once plus on store shelves it's exposed to all types of questionable bacteria
10/11/2021, By Lisa
Very nice. Has a lot of protein and tastes nice.
14/06/2021, By Ginny
I am not allowed to eat any white pasta and found this really nice & nourishing.
23/03/2021, By Marius
Another tasty way I can enjoy red lentils!
22/02/2021, By Anita
I'm so thankful that my 9 month old baby loves this pasta! Easy and delicious way to get some protein in.
11/02/2021, By Elaine
Love this product, healthy and wholesome with a great taste!!
10/02/2021, By Linke
Delicious and the texture, which I was concerned about is perfect!

Had these for lunch today with a tomato and artichoke sauce. I love that this pasta holds a lot of sauce. My kids - 4 and 1 - had most of my lunch so it is a YES from all 3 of us :)
05/01/2021, By Heather
Tasty and easy to use
05/01/2021, By Evelyn Joy
Love this alternative. Will buy again.

Good for IBS sufferers. Not so heavy on the tummy

Can’t overstate how much I love this pasta.

Can’t overstate how much I love this pasta.
17/12/2020, By Khaila
It has a slightly strange texture, but cooks really quickly and feeds four! All in all I really like it and would definitely buy again. Also a fan of the eco-friendly packaging!
17/12/2020, By Natalie
I really like these :) Easy and quick to make and taste nice - as close to tradition pasta as you can get. Price, taste and texture better than other lentil pastas I have found.
11/12/2020, By Siobhan
Easy to cook, just like regular pasta. Great texture and tasty.
06/12/2020, By Bianca
So pressed with the product, was very sceptic to try. My new favourite for this pasta lover

We love these, they taste good and are a good source of protein
04/11/2020, By Clint
A little dry and bland ....
21/10/2020, By Janet
This is my go-to quick lunch. I love the taste, texture and almost anything works as a sauce or added flavour. I usually just add some humus, olive oil, seeds, chilli, turmeric and black pepper. Highly recommended, I buy it every time I order something.
15/10/2020, By Chantel
Great taste and texture - very similar to 'normal' wheat pasta. Good alternative and nutritious. Would buy this before other gluten free options
07/10/2020, By Justine
I really enjoyed this pasta. Unlike some other naturally gluten-free pastas, it has a texture that is very similar to regular pasta.
01/10/2020, By Neischa
Lovely product
01/10/2020, By Jennifer
Taste great! Texture very similar to regular. My husband and I both really enjoyed it.
29/09/2020, By Wendy
Lovely and healthy alternative to pasta. Really enjoyed it.
25/09/2020, By Neischa
I bought this for my mother, she says it is as good as the 'normal' pasta. So this is a great low carb.
23/09/2020, By Retha
Very tasty! Great replacement for wheat pasta
09/09/2020, By Nikita
A bit on the gritty side, but tasty and nutritious
19/08/2020, By Melissa
I prefer the chickpea one more. But still filled with goodness
13/08/2020, By Yifat
Very nice!
05/08/2020, By Chantel
Taste great! My whole family ate and enjoyed it, even my 9-year-old.

Mmmh! very very happy with this pasta. A healthier alternative and easy to cook pasta that suits our busy lives.

Yet to try, always happy with ftn
01/06/2020, By ShinyVegan
Absolutely DELISH! Quick and easy to cook, High in Protein and just delectable! Love the texture of this pasta, really adds a beautiful earthy (in the best way) flave to the dish!
30/05/2020, By Kristen
Tastes great! I love this pasta! It's a great alternative to normal pasta.
17/05/2020, By Simone
A fantastic alternative to normal pasta - tastes the same to me, but with a whole lot more protein and fewer carbs. It looks expensive but is pretty decent when you compare it to other red lentil pasta products out there.
15/05/2020, By Dawn
Premium pasta
11/05/2020, By Deidre
Absolutely obsessed! Definitely. my favorite one, it tastes great and the texture is really good!
11/05/2020, By Chantal
Great texture, wouldn't know the difference from wheat pasta
06/05/2020, By Glad
Easy meal
04/05/2020, By Angel
Superb, exquisite fusilli
03/05/2020, By Ash
Mega-impressed with this scrumptious and nutritious lentil pasta
28/04/2020, By Qudsiyyah
Not for me, the texture was hard to get over
25/04/2020, By Bee
Good choice. Great texture.
23/04/2020, By Tyler

14/04/2020, By Kayla
Was so excited to try this pasta and was not disappointed. Super yummy!
06/04/2020, By Blue
What a range
27/03/2020, By Singh
I recently tried a sample and it was absolutely delicious on its own and I'm sure it will taste good with a side of veggies. Will definitely be purchasing this product!
17/03/2020, By Tara
Not the best texture, kinda chewy and does not adhere to sauce well.
13/03/2020, By Duané
Love this one as well as the chickpea one, very filling and yummy.
24/02/2020, By Kerry
Love this! My 5 year old loves the colour and the taste and it's an added bonus that everything about the packaging is guilt-free too!
03/02/2020, By Candice
My family didnt even notice until I told them after lunch.
Will buy regularly from now on.
23/01/2020, By Bianca
The taste is not exactly that of pasta nor is the texture, but it is very good. Would definitely buy again!
19/12/2019, By Ell
I think people need to understand that non conventional pastas are never going to taste the same, however with that in mind, it is good. The texture is more chewy so I use less. It can make for a good meal.
18/11/2019, By Keren
This pasta is pretty good. It has an earthy taste and texture. I like that it is high in protein. I also like that there is no plastic packaging.
13/11/2019, By Rachel
Tasty and filling. Just be careful not to over cook - prefer to chickpea alternative.
08/11/2019, By VERONICA
I LOVE this range of pastas! The closest I've found to wheat pasta (other than buckwheat). I love that it is nutritious but tastes so good. Texture a bit chewier. Don't overcook. I love that it only takes 6 minutes to cook!
02/10/2019, By Amanda
I mix this fusilli with gluten-free rice pasta for additional fibre and protein. Delicious!
26/09/2019, By Hayley
Tastes alright but doesn't measure up to the regular pasta for me
20/08/2019, By Bee
It tastes like normal pasta, but the texture is a bit more dry. It is fine with a nice sauce though.
09/07/2019, By Ant
no shapes to the pasta, all small pieces with no texture :(
11/05/2019, By Jordana
I don’t love the taste of this lentil pasta by itself. However, it does the job and satisfies my craving for pasta. I enjoy it with a homemade pesto over it
09/04/2019, By Neri
I’m so glad that there are wheat free alternatives for pasta. I’m sure over time the manufacturers will improve on the taste and texture, which takes some getting used to. It’s a great way to sneak in protein for vegetarian kids.
22/03/2019, By Jayshree
Great new alternative for me! :)
16/02/2019, By Helena
Love sneaking lentils into my kids with this yummy pasta
30/01/2019, By Ella
Good, nice taste
03/01/2019, By Estee
I love this pasta, I enjoy the taste and the slightly different texture. It tastes pretty good even with a light sauce/ spice.
15/10/2018, By Lee
I love this pasta alternative ~ it's one of my favourites! It makes a great ingredient in a salad too!
05/10/2018, By Adrienne
I loved it but the consistency of the product needs some tweaking. Healthy alternative to regular wheat pasta though.
24/09/2018, By Victoria
Bought this in an attempt to try something healthy & gluten free for the family. Was not impressed. After cooking the pasta it looked flesh colored & off-putting, plus it tasted like cardboard (even with sauce added), kids felt the same way. It’s also ridiculously over-priced.
26/03/2018, By Healthy Girl
this is tasty
26/02/2018, By Louise
It works for our family as an alternative to wheat pasta. My kids would eat pasta morning, noon and night, so I had to get a healthier option, and this definitely does the trick. They don't even know the difference...
19/02/2018, By Hanlie
Very good!
14/01/2018, By Monique
As far as wheat pasta alternatives go, this is a pretty decent one, taste and texture wise. Nice than rice pasta in my opinion.

16/10/2017, By Zonika
This is the best. Cooks very quickly, keeps the noodle form even in leftovers for the next day. Tastes great. Very filling.
11/10/2017, By rochelle
a delicious, healthy alternative to regular pasta!
06/10/2017, By Janisha
Good pasta alternative, but tends to break when cooked. Much prefer the chickpea pasta from the same range
15/09/2017, By Lissa
Cooked quite quickly, broke up while cooking quite a bit that it tended to look like rice. Taste wasn't too bad on its own but paired with a good sauce can really elevate it. Wouldn't recommend it as it didn't end up looking like pasta at the end but I love the idea of the product. Hope they can get the consistency to hold in their next batches.
13/09/2017, By Tess
My children didn't love this product, too earthy tasting for them.
24/08/2017, By Tracy
None of us particularly liked this. It was rather bland and we didn't really like the texture. I wont buy again.
11/08/2017, By Sue
Love this product. Such a great alternative to Pasta, tasty and easy to cook. Always a packet or two in my cupboard.
12/07/2017, By Izaan
I had to go gluten-free about 8 years ago and I have tried many pasta alternatives over the years. This pasta is by far the best - not only is it delicious, but it is a complete meal on it's own. I just add a little pesto and some olive oil or hemp seed oil and that's it! Filling and tasty!
05/07/2017, By Courtney
Delicious! Highly recommend trying this alternative. Just one ingredient!
02/06/2017, By Suezie
we have been eating this product for a few months now and love both the chick pea and lentil pasta. We have one of them for dinner at least once a week.
27/03/2017, By Robs
Moms, gluten avoiders, vegetarians, weight watchers... I trust youve got your hands on this awesome guilt free pasta! This revolutionary pasta is a first of its kind in SA - 100% lentils magically worked into pasta swirls. It tastes like a nuttier version of your usual pasta (kids won even notice the difference); is totally GMO and gluten-free and high in protein! For moms out there who despair with kids who only want to eat pasta, this is for you! The sneakiest of sneaky clever mama tricks to get the good stuff into their tummies. And for moms like me who struggle to find interesting ways to make high protein veggie meals for their family... I give you mothers gold - loving it!
06/01/2017, By Andrea
This is delicious - very similar in consistency to the familiar pastas and doesn leave you feeling bloated and gross. Lentil Bolognese winner!
