    Whole Grain Thin Spaghetti with Kale, Asparagus and Lemon

    This is a sponsored review from BlogHer and Barilla

    Thin Spaguetti with kale Hi guys! I thought we could chat a bit about whole grain pasta today. I'm a fan of the taste, texture, and nutritional value of Barilla® Whole Grain Pasta. According to Barilla®, their pastas are made with 51% whole wheat and are an all-natural and excellent source of fiber, delivering three times the fiber of regular pasta.

    As a mom, I like to incorporate as many nutritious, family-friendly meals as possible into our menus, and I am always very happy to add a new dish to the list. I am very excited that I've been finding more ways to incorporate whole grain into our diets, and Barilla® Whole Grain pasta is a great way to do it. You can choose from many types of whole grain pasta, such as Linguine, Thin Spaghetti, Spaghetti, Medium Shells, Rotini, and Penne. Barilla Whole Grain pasta BlogHer and Barilla® sent me three boxes of varying types of whole grain pasta, and I needed to create a recipe using one of them. I wanted to do something a little different from a traditional pasta with tomato sauce, while keeping the dish light and vegetarian-friendly.

    I often find myself rushing around on weeknights, trying to throw together a healthy and appealing meal. I know a lot of moms regularly find themselves in a similar position, so I hope this recipe helps! I decided to make a healthy, flavorful dish using Barilla® Thin Whole Grain Spaghetti. The sauce is simply olive oil, organic kale, garlic, organic asparagus, lemon, organic grape tomatoes, feta cheese and spices. Whole Grain Pasta Asparagus and kale are the base of this dish, but there is quite a lot going on beyond those textures and flavors. You get a bite of tang from the lemon, heat from the red pepper flakes, while the fresh grape tomatoes, parsley, and feta cheese cool things down, and the touch of ground cumin adds just enough earthiness to balance everything out. Kale The verdict: This meatless, whole grain pasta dish is a knockout and one of my new favorite recipes to make for my family! I love the array of colors, textures and flavors in this dish. I also know I am doing something good for my family and myself with this healthy meal.

    Barilla® is also offering a taste guarantee...If you don't love their whole grain pasta, they'll give you a free box of Barilla® blue box pasta.

      This looks like a great recipe! To cook healthy in my home, I limit the use of salt, oils and butters. Fresh herbs are a great substitute when looking for flavor.

      Love barilla brand!!! Always have, the best quality/taste of pasta around. Been using it for years! I love the wheat products! Been trying to eat healthier so been doing lots of wheat and brown rice, and lots of grilled fish and chicken! And salads!! And I'm getting my family to love it in the process! Which is a good thing! They are not the biggest veggie/healthy eaters!

      I love the GREAT TASTE of Barilla Whole Grain! It's also wonderful how healthy it is and both kids and adults enjoy it. My sons are picky eaters but they love Barilla!

      By the way, I enjoy your blog. My mother is Colombian.

      I love the fact that Barilla Whole Wheat Pasta doesn't taste like cardboard. My husband loves pasta, but he would refuse to eat whole wheat pasta because as he said "It's not he same, it has a funny taste" until I used Barilla! Now he doesn't even notice the difference lol.

      Our family has completely switched to the Barilla pasta. We love the whole wheat pasta! All our dishes come out that much better. We once thought pasta was 'ok' but now that it's whole wheat that makes it so much healthier we think it's the BEST!!!

      Erica, I still yer have to cook with whole grain pasta...and this one seems the one to start with. Like the idea of the veggies...and lots of them in the pasta. Is sure looks a great weeknight meal.

      Love this light and healthy recipe using whole grain pasta. I buy Barilla Whole Grain pasta for my kids and find it is such a kid friendly pasta. We serve it with mostly tomato based sauces, but I've also made stir-fry noodles with them, and it worked really well with their whole grain pasta.

      I love whole-grain pasta: Nutty, nutritious, and hearty enough to stand up to chunky and elaborate homemade sauces or toppings. Barilla is actually my preferred brand, so this would be perfect!

      February 22, 2012 at 9:35 am

      I have never used Barilla Whole Grain Pasta but from what I'm reading I bet it would be tasty in my favorite "Mediterranean" Pasta Salad, a mix of olives, tomatoes, avocados, red onion, capers, salt and pepper, tossed with olive oil and balsamic vinegar.

    20. Jay

      February 22, 2012 at 9:38 am

      Oh and don't forget the warm bread with the the pasta salad. Thanks for the Barilla Whole Grain Pasta recommendation. I'll have to pick-up a box and try it.

      I love Barilla® Whole Grain Pasta because it provides more fiber, it is nutritious and delicious. I have been buying the Barilla’s regular pasta for many years and switched to this whole grain once I tried and love it’s texture.

      I love that its a very well known name brand offering whole grains to the masses. I am a huge proponent of eating whole foods, especially whole grains and have noticed that lots of people have a negative opinion of "health foods." With the Barilla name comes a guarantee that its going to taste great and hopefully that will get more people to try it and see that eating healthy tastes great!
