Low(er) carb gluten-free pasta?

Does anyone know of a lower carb gluten-free pasta? I have looked at pretty much all the bigger brands (Italpasta, Barilla, GoGo, President's Choice, Tinkyada, Rizopia, Catelli, Arrowhead Mills, Prairie Harvest) and they all come in at about 0.7-0.8 carbs per gram of pasta.

Does anyone know of a higher protein, lower carb version?

I realize pasta is, by definition, higher carb but in the non-gluten-free world there are at least higher protein/lower carb pastas. Why not a gluten-free contender?

And, yes, I know you can do the whole spiralized veggie thing but sometimes you just want pasta!

Anyone have product suggestions?

I posted about this product last week - Organic Edamame Spaghetti (Open Original Shared Link) is lower carbs and has lots of protein. I actually like it a lot, and Costco carries it.

I think the same company also makes black bean pasta, but I haven't seen it in stores.

Oh, I like that! The nutritional specs are really good. I'm in Canada, though, so I will have to check if Costco Canada has it. I hope so!

 

Thanks so much!

I don't think it's available in Canada yet, but according to their website Banza pasta has double the protein of regular pasta and half the carbs of regular pasta. I haven't tried it yet, Open Original Shared Link

This one looks even better. I like that it's dried pasta. Not in Canada, though. Bummer. We always are late to the party where new products are concerned. Sucks!

Just saw this article Open Original Shared Link

and did a search here and saw it mentioned briefly in this thread. Has anyone tried the Banza pasta? I love the nutrition on it! And it's actually sold near where I live :) Would love to try it soon!

OLD dead thread but by lower carb standards I use Open Original Shared Link

 

 

For a protein add in I whisk up some egg beaters or egg whites. pour them into a oiled skillet on low heat to form a thin layer and cook to form a thin sheet. I dump this on a cutting bored and use a knife to cut it into thin noodles for added protein. You can also cut deli meats into thin strips for protein.  The noodles from Miracle noodles I normally serve up with browned longhorn, and pasta sauce, for vegans I top with beyond meat beefy crumbles, and sometimes I mix up a vegan cheesy sauce or a dairy free alfrado sauce and mix in tuna or salmon.

Sounds delicious.

I am mostly interested in the Banza brand to see how they fare the next day and how good they are supposed to taste according to the review.

      Inhaler problem

      By Ann13 · Posted

      Not everyone will be allergic to whatever they're using in food. There is another forum re people who are posting they have vocal cord & throat issues after they eat breads & pastas which stopped after they removed those foods from their diets. Same as me...gluten doesn't react as gastrointestinal it reacts orally. Which is why I'm saying ensure all your food isn't what you're having a reaction to.  ...& I used Cornflakes as an example because some gluten free people would assume it's gluten free but if they're allergic to barley they will have a reaction...nothing to do with their inhaler.  You're missing my points a lot & frustrating so I'm done commenting. You really need to ensure your food isn't what's causing the issue. I am checking with symbicort manufacturer to check their ingredients.  Good bye... I'm done with this.

      I certainly agree with all that. However, you also mentioned cornflakes with barley malt but that would obviously not be gluten free since barley is a gluten-containing grain. And the chemicals they spray on grains would affect everyone, not just those with gluten disorders. I'm just trying to figure out what this thread has to do with the main subject this online community is focused on. Is the point of this thread that having a gluten disorder makes someone more susceptible to reacting adversely to inhalers? That could be but it may have nothing to do with the inhaler having gluten. It could have to do with, say, having higher systemic yeast counts because the celiac community generally suffers from gut dysbiosis. So it would be easier for celiacs using inhalers to develop thrush.

      Re food,  I said the gluten free thing isn't necessarily about gluten itself, but chemical sprays they use on GRAINS which cause allergic throat & vocal cord issues regardless of the inhaler you're using.  Your issue may not be the inhaler but eating gluten free food that still will bother you because they have been sprayed with certain chemicals. Barley & oats cause vocal and throat issues with me as well as gluten free flours. We didn't have gluten issues in the world yrs ago...the food changed somehow or they're using sprays that cause reactions in some people.  Re inhaler: Symbicort is registered as gluten free but companies can change their ingredients at any time so you may want to check with the company who makes it and get an ingredient list.  I don't believe I'm reacting to the inhaler...I believe it's a gluten free pasta I've been eating so I'm taking it out of my diet. I've used the inhaler for over 1 year and no problems up until now so I suspect it's the pasta.

      There could be other reasons you are reacting to the inhalers. There is no concrete evidence to believe they contain gluten. Anecdotal experiences can be misleading do not establish fact.

      Are you saying you believe there is gluten in the inhaler products? I mean you talk a lot about reacting to foods that are supposed to be gluten free but this thread is about inhalers.
