Time for Pasta!

by Christine - From Dates to Diapers on March 30, 2008

Our family loves pasta! Rotini, fettucini, macaroni, spaghetti… Just about any noodle can be made in to a scrumptious meal, and our family will eat it!

We just had the opportunity to try RONZONI Healthy Harvest® Whole Wheat Rotini… It is so fun for me to cook foods for my family that are not only delicious, but healthy, too. Of course, the Rotini noodles, served with marinara sauce for the kiddos, were a huge hit!

RONZONI has recently fortified all RONZONI Healthy Harvest® products so they are an excellent source of omega-3. Healthy Harvest is also low in fat, cholesterol-free, and sodium-free. In fact, one serving includes 70% of the daily whole grains requirement!

Even my brother-in-law and nephew wanted to try these whole grain noodles… Here’s what my sister, Sara, had to say:

My husband loves pasta, so when my sister gave us some Ronzoni’s Whole Wheat Blend Pasta, I was excited to try it out. I have yet to make it for him, but I did cook some up for my 1 and 1/2 year old son, and he gobbled it all up! I even gave it to him plain! I know that I will be cooking it up a lot in our meals. Guess what? As an added plus, the Ronzoni pasta is loaded with all kinds of nutrients, including natural whole grains, and flaxseed! This is great since my family tries to be conscious about going with natural foods and having healthy nutrition.

Would you like to try RONZONI Healthy Harvest® Rotini? Well, I have TWO boxes to give away to ONE winner! Just leave me a comment here, by 9pm (PST) on Sunday, April 6th, telling me why you want to try RONZONI Healthy Harvest® Rotini, and you’ll be entered!

Oh, and don’t forget to check out the delicious recipes and tips on healthy living at www.ronzonihealthyharvest.com!

This giveaway is now closed! Winner will be announced shortly.

Would love to try this! They only had reg and thin spaghetti Healthy Harvest at the store so I bought that and had to buy the rotini in another brand.

A healthier alternative to pasta is a godsend. I would love to try this as another step in my quest to a healthier life for my entire family.

I’ve been replacing white pasta with whole wheat pasta for the past month. Even my kiddos didn’t complain about the whole wheat spaghetti.

I would love to try this because I’m a pasta junkie but because I have high blood sugar, traditional pastas often spike it too high for me to eat it as much as I’d like. I heard that whole grain pastas are much easier on your system, and it would be such a blessing to eat all my favorite pasta dishes again.

I LOVE pasta! But, my husband and I have committed to eating healthier. This looks like it could be the perfect compromise between my favorite food and my healthy goals. :)

My 21-month-old could live on pasta (and pizza) if we let her, but we do try to feed her healthy things.

I’m ready to try a healthier pasta. I tried one a long time ago when they first came out and it was strange tasting. Went to my daughter’s for dinner and didn’t even know I was eating a healthy pasta…they have come a long way!

our favorite food is pasta, and this would certainly make me feel less unhealthy if we traded up the regular pasta for the more healthy kind.

I actually didn’t think about trying whole wheat pasta until I was watching Rachael Ray’s show and she talked it up. I am slightly afraid to try it because I’m such a pasta lover and I like the way it tastes already. However, I’ve switched my breads and rices away from white already so I’m thinking I’ll like it ok. This would be the perfect way to try it out! Great giveaway.

We’ve eaten whole wheat pasta for years, and actually prefer the taste. I haven’t tried this brand though.

Connor is a pasta hound.. I would love to try these out as multigrain is so much better than white.

I’d love to try it because DH’s numbers were UGLY the last batch of tests he had. We really have to do something about it. We love pasta, but I know the regular stuff just isn’t good for him. (and I cannot bear to live without pasta!)

My boyfriend recently found out he’s diabetic, so we’re trying to go whole wheat with all our carbs. Ronzoni would be a good addition to our meals. We LOVE pasta.

I would love to try it! I’ve lost 70 lbs in the last two years and have drastically changed my eating habits. I still LOVE pasta though, so I try to only eat the whole wheat kind. Don’t think I’ve ever had this brand though, so I’d love to see if I like it. :)

Our family loves pasta, though we usually eat the white flour kind. I have slowly been trying to modify our diet in different areas and would welcome the opportunity to try a healthier version of one of our favourite foods.

We have been trying a lot of whole wheat pasta in our efforts to eat healthy and help my husband control his blood sugar levels. Some products are ok and some pastas just don’t make the cut! With the Ronzoni Brand name this has to be the best whole wheat pasta, and we’d love to try it!
