Love the ancient grains. I used the rotini to make a cold pasta salad with a lime italian vinaigrette. It was delicious. Made with simple ingredients and good for me. I will definitely be buying this in the future.

I received Catelli Ancient Grains Rotini as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club.
The pasta did not cook up like regular white pasta, but given the ingredients it is more than acceptable. It works well with a sauce just like any other pasta, and is, no doubt, healthier than regular pasta.
I received this product as part of the Chick Advisor Product Review Club. I liked that the pasta was made from 5 different ancient grains - it's a great way to get extra fiber in your diet. The texture of the pasta may take a little getting used to, as it's definitely different than 'regular' pasta. However, the taste is great and it works well in different recipes.
Catelli Ancient Grains Rotini pasta a whole goodness! It contains whole grain wheat and 5 other whole grains so its healthy and this is very important for me and my family. Its easy to prepare, done in less then 10 min and didn't stick while cooking. And most important that my picky eaters ate it, this pasta taste like regular pasta(I tried different whole grain pastas and they had some not pleasant aftertaste). Catelli Ancient Grains Rotini pasta a little bit dry for my taste so it's better serve with sauce. I definitely buy this pasta again and will recommend for my friends.

I had the opportunity to try this product free from Chickadvisor's Product Review Club. Although this is a very different and unique product, I found that the texture was different and the grains were evident. (very grainy) I personally did not like the texture of this pasta and found it to be quite different. My family felt the same. It is not something I would purchase.
We have now tried this pasta 2 different ways. I used the recipe that was provided and it was delicious and the second time i made it into a cold pasta salad. Whatever way you want to try it, it was amazing both ways and helld texture and taste when cold as well.
I received the product free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. I liked that the pasta was made from whole grains however if you are used to eating white pasta the texture of the Ancient Grains pasta may take a little getting used to. I would not use this pasta every time I cooked a pasta dish but would certainly use it once in a while to change things up.
The product itself is quality and if you are into whole wheats and grains this would be for you .. however we aren't into it so the taste and feel of the pasta just feels off if you aren't used to it ..
Our family was divided on this pasta. Accounting for two very picky eaters in our house, their response was better than I had expected but unfortunately they were not as enthusiastic as I was about this pasta. I will likely purchase this pasta it in the future, but likely only for my own use, while my spouse and child will be using a different Catelli product.
I appreciate having received the product free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. Thank you so much for including my family in this product review!
Catelli ancient grains is made from all natural whole grains. A blend of Canadian wheat and five ancient grains- quinoa, amaranth, text, sorghum and millet. High in protein, fibre and iron. Delicious & wholesome!
