Has anyone tried this? The reviews seem favorable.

Organic Explore Asian Bean Pastas cook up to a perfect Al Dente texture and unlike most gluten free pasta, this product does not easily overcook. Ingredients: Organic black beans, water.

Deb,

Never heard of this, but it sounds very interesting to me, as I do well with beans. Please post an update if you decide to try it.

Thanks,
Kari

I have tried that! Even got some left in the cupboard.

I cooks well and tastes fine. Doesn't stick together like some GF spaghetti.

Mine had a recipe on the pack for a salad with capsicum which I have served to people, and even my fussy brother went back for more.

DH finds the colour offputting, otherwise I would use it more often.

I bought some black bean chips that were excellent. They were almost all black bean. Wish I could remember the brand. Just have to be mindful of the serving size because they have a lot of fiber.

That's good news. I'm having a hard time finding them. I've tried health food stores and Whole Foods without success. It looks like it's time for an
Amazon order. My Amazon store card and I are good friends. :) The chips sound good too!

Not sure if I would try it since I really react to beans and the front runner for reaction - by far - is black beans.
