NLCKitchen Keto Pasta, Keto Rice - 1.8g Carbs Per Portion (10 x 100g) - Delicious, Low Carb, High Fibre, Protein Source, No Added Sugar, Vegetarian - Keto Rice

I bought the keto pasta and keto rice which are great substitutes for real pasta when getting tired of courgettis. Taste is great and has no weird smell. It goes well with pesto, tomato and creamy sauces, chicken, veggies and soy sauce etc.

Not only am I a follower of the Keto diet but I also struggle to digest rice.Pros:Extremely low carb per portion.Nice ‘nutty’ taste as you’d get with brown rice.Individually packed so easy to work out portions & easy to take away with you.Cooks evenly and looks like chunky brown rice.Cons:It’s chunkier than rice & looks like cardboard chips when it arrives but don’t let that put you off.Costly - you do get 10 bags but they’re not huge servings and they work out at almost £2 per portion.

This is a really good alternative to pasta. It's a little grainy but I don't mind that. It has a pleasant nutty ish flavour and work well with any sauce. Helpful on the Keto diet when you feel you are missing out on foods that help to fill you up, this does the job really well.

I was so looking forward to this after all the reviews about the taste! I checked the ingredients, they mentioned wheat fibre and protein (like in real pasta), pea protein (yum peas) and acacia fibre - who knows.Anyhow with open mind and hungry mouth I proceeded to cook them. It took longer than advertised (I think twice as long) and tasted a bit weirdly when I tried to see if they are cooked - a bit like boiled minced meat. Since I am not a vegetarian and I thought with a bit of sauce, this won't matter at all. I was wrong. Meaty is just a descriptive word, doesn't fully cover how weird and awful the taste has been! All of these are now in the bin!I wanted to leave this review so that future customers know that the taste is not universally appreciated. Considering the price, I would recommend buying one pack to try it and see if you like it before getting a lot of it.

I mean it’s better than the konaj pasta but still doesn’t taste much like pasta, however, sometimes I will find myself making this when I fancy a tomato based pasta with cheese.Quite dry.

I'm not sure how many times I've repurchased this - probably 5-6 times including the rice version.But I can confidently say if you're doing the actual keto diet, this will help you lose the weight or maintain it depending on your goal, as it has for me.Firstly keto pastas have a odd smell when they're cooked because usually they're made of beans... however this DOES NOT SMELL AT ALL. No funky smells, nothing!Second of all the taste, if you have a Mediterranean palette like mine this is perfect - it's the closest taste to actual wheat pasta with no bitterness or odd texture.BUT the recommended cook time is too short - I recommend cooking until desired texture as 7 minutes is definitely not enough (I go for 8-9 minutes - even then it's a little aldente). Also cooking with salt makes the pasta harden up immediately, so adding salt after its cooked is better.I can say that this tastes great with extra virgin olive oil. While it's still hot I mix with crumbly feta cheese and sprinkle with shredded mozzarella. So yummy! Highly recommend if you're on a low-carb diet.

The pasta is excellent. A bit pricy but overall best on the marker. The rice is not as great yet useful in some instances!

I’ve been Keto for 2.5 years, it’s great to find a dried ‘pasta’ product that I actually find indistinguishable from real pasta. It contains pea, which is not a common thing for me to eat as legumes are inflammatory and not clean Keto, but I’ve had no adverse effects eating this even 2 days in a row so I’m happy to continue purchasing this to eat occasionally. The pasta makes a decent penne for bolognese, the ‘rice’ is a lot like orzo and can be treated as either. Incredible that it’s cooked in 7 minutes. Overall extremely impressed, will buy again!
