The pasta you love with the energy you want. Made with delicious golden wheat and protein from lentils, chickpeas, and peas, Barilla Protein+ Penne and Rotini pastas provide a good source of protein for the whole family with 17g of protein per 3.5oz serving. Penne pasta is one of the most famous Italian pasta shapes and greatly loved across Italy. Penne, which means “pen” in Italian, is a tube-shape with angled ends, inspired by the quill of an old-style ink pen. Ridged Protein+ Penne pasta are designed for meat, vegetable, cheese and oil or butter sauces. Penne pasta is also great for baked dishes as the shape can hold up to layered ingredients in the baking process. Rotini (meaning “twists”) are two-inch lengths of thick, screw-like pasta from Northern Italy. The pasta shape was inspired by children, since it is fun to eat and pairs well with a wide variety of sauces. The twists of Protein+ Rotini pasta allow it to hold more sauce, making it perfect for your favorite pasta salad dishes or paired with tasty tomato-based sauces.
