Sautéed Rotini with Broccoflower and Mushrooms

February 11, 2019

This post is sponsored by Barilla but the content and opinions expressed here are my own.


Want perfect pasta? Try Barilla’s new Red Lentil Rotini. One ingredient vegan pasta makes this Sautéed Rotini amazing !

Last week I asked you if you had vegan pasta. I had not and made an super easy Lemon Garlic Pasta with Barilla’s new Red Lentil Pasta. The pasta is so versatile, I made yet another dish that was equally good and equally easy.

After my last recipe I made, I became a big fan of vegan pasta. I never thought I’d say that, but it’s true. In fact, I purchased multiple boxes of both Red Lentil varieties (penne and rotini) so I can use it yet again.

The beauty of these pastas is they are make from one simple ingredient and have superior taste and texture vs. the pastas I’ve tried in the past.

Plus, the nutritional elements are unbeatable. They include:

  • – Plant-Based Protein
  • – Fiber Rich
  • – Gluten Free
  • – Non-GMO Certified
  • – Vegetarian/Vegan
  • – Grain Free

Since my last recipe for Lemon Garlic Pasta turned out so fantastic, I tried something a little different this time using broccoflower. What the heck is broccoflower you ask? Well, it’s a combo of two favorites; broccoli and cauliflower. Using this delicious fresh veggie along with my Red Lentil pasta made a simple dish easy enough for weeknights.
