Best Rotini Pasta of 2025

"I absolutely love Barilla Ready Pasta! It's so easy to use and makes a delicious meal. I can whip up pasta salads or add whatever protein I have on hand. I'm thrilled I found it again!"

"Barilla Ready Pasta has transformed my weeknight dinners! In just 60 seconds, I have perfectly cooked elbows ready to go—no mess or boiling required. The texture is impressively al dente, and it tastes just like homemade."

"I'm so happy I discovered Barilla Ready Pasta! It's pre-cooked and incredibly simple to use. I just toss in some cheese sauce and parmesan cheese, and it's terrific! I use it weekly."

"I bought these for a friend with many mouths to feed; they love the tri-color pasta and I feel it’s a bit healthier. Cooking them is quick and easy, and the 16 boxes at a fair price were a great deal for me. I always share my honest experience in reviews."

"My son was a pasta snob, only eating one brand. After seeing me use the tri-colored rotini in a salad, he wanted to try it because it had spinach, his favorite sauce ingredient. Now, it's his favorite pasta, and I'm thrilled he's open to new recipes!"

"I've used this pasta frequently but couldn't find it locally. I ordered it on Amazon, and it arrived in a couple of days, just in time for my Mock Crab Pasta Salad. It's so delicious when you mix it with various ingredients. YUM!"

"I absolutely love this pasta! In my humble opinion, Barilla makes the best whole wheat pasta."

"I appreciate that this brand holds up well to sauce, making it a great addition to my meals."

"Finding linguine has been a challenge for me, but it's my favorite non-white flour pasta."

"I absolutely love this pasta! It tastes even better than traditional pasta, and I feel less guilty eating it since it’s not as carb-heavy and is packed with protein!"

"As a mom of a picky eater, this pasta is a game changer! My toddler can't tell it's any different, and it’s a fantastic way to sneak in extra protein without the fuss."

"By far the best noodles I've ever tried! I love making pasta salads, and this product gives me the added protein I want without sacrificing taste or texture."

"I loved the excellent colors, and they worked wonderfully in my new roasted shrimp salad!"

"Unfortunately, my package was mailed in an envelope, so the noodles arrived crushed."

"I didn't realize they were whole grain. I doubt my kids will eat it. I also intended to use them for pasta salad, but I found each piece to be too short."

"These noodles take twice as long to cook as regular dry noodles. While they are definitely more nutritious, they aren't as time-saving as I hoped."

"Initially, I was skeptical about this pasta. We had been using a low-carb option called Carb Nada, which I liked, but I wanted something lower in carbs. When I saw the reviews for this product, I decided to give the elbows a try for my shrimp and pasta salad. I followed the cooking instructions and was pleasantly surprised; they turned out perfectly. The texture was just right, and they tasted like regular pasta. I'm definitely ordering more, even though the price is a bit high at $14.99 for three boxes. It's a treat to enjoy pasta without the guilt!"

"I've been waiting for a pasta like this made from the same ingredients as the low-carb bread and tortillas I love. It cooks in 15 minutes and actually tastes like pasta, not vegetables. The texture is smoother than traditional pasta, but I didn't mind it at all. I appreciate that it doesn't fall apart like some cheaper options. Overall, I'm thrilled with this product!"

"As someone who loves spaghetti but is changing my eating habits, I can't recommend this product enough. The taste and texture are spot on. My son, whom I call our 'Pasta King,' tried it and loved it right away. With a bit of Rao's marinara and some low-fat meat, it’s a fantastic alternative. Plus, it's made by a Minnesota company, which makes it even better!"

"I absolutely love this pasta! It tastes just like real pasta, and nobody can tell the difference. Plus, it has totally fewer carbs!"

"As someone who is diabetic and gluten-free, I really appreciate having pasta that's safe for my health. It feels great knowing I can enjoy it without worries!"

"We are big fans of Banza! The flavor is amazing, and it comes in different shapes. I feel good about my kids eating it because they're getting protein without even realizing it!"

“I found it difficult to find cauliflower-based rotini, but here it is! A good product too.”

“I thought the pasta was pretty good, but I do miss wheat pasta. It had a slightly spongy taste, yet it’s better than some gluten-free options I’ve tried.”

“I was very surprised by the flavor of this item. I usually eat chickpea pasta, but this is much better. Just make sure to cook it for only five minutes!”

“My family absolutely loves this pasty! It's so tasty and quick to make, providing great value for our money. I believe it's better quality than boxed mac and cheese.”

“I frequently cook Knorr pastas, and I really enjoy them. They are very tasty and creamy, and I can prepare them in under 15 minutes. Although I personally love the flavor, I wish they had a bit less sodium. Five stars!”

“I bought this product due to my addiction to the Knorr Four Cheese Pasta side dish, which is my absolute favorite. However, this one was just okay. It wasn't very cheesy, so we had to add more cheese to it. Still, it was easy to prepare and I recommend cooking it on lower heat for better results.”

"I love how easy this is! Living alone, I often crave pasta for dinner, but I don’t want to deal with a whole pot of boiling water and excess pasta. This product is just perfect! I can grab a jar of my favorite sauce, heat a pouch in the microwave, and in two minutes I have a tasty meal. Cleanup is a breeze with just a bowl and fork!"

"I’ve bought this product several times because it’s a handy and quick way to enjoy pasta. However, I noticed my latest order had a much shorter expiration date compared to previous orders, which is a bit disappointing. I still enjoy the convenience, but I’d prefer if it lasted longer!"

"Finally, I can enjoy pasta without a lot of hassle! The Barilla brand is excellent, and the rotini helps me keep my portions in check. Just tossing a bag in the microwave for 60 seconds makes it easy to whip up a meal with marinara or veggies. It’s affordable too, especially when ordered in bulk!"
