Do You Have Smart Taste?

I love whole-wheat pasta. I try to incorporate it into our weekly meal regime but, my husband isn't a fan of the way it tastes. And the kids? They don't really care what they put in their mouths as long as it's covered in cheese or marinara sauce. We have tried many different brands of pastas and recently had the chance to try Ronzoni Smart Taste spaghetti noodles.


The best thing about Ronzoni is that it's the first "white" pasta to be enriched with Fiber, Calcium and Vitamin D, so I can feed my family something healthy as well as tasty. Ronzoni Smart taste has the Calcium and Vitamin D equivalent to one 8-ounce glass of milk. While I'd never replace any food for milk, I do love that we're getting enough calcium in our bodies to prevent brittle bones and osteoporosis. This pasta is lower in calories and fat, too, which I think will keep those extra pounds off my middle.My husband was skeptical at first, but I pleaded with him to just try it. Here's the dish we made:


Looks delish, doesn't it? Check this view out:

Yes, we really did garnish our pasta with green onions -- it was fabulous.

Ronzoni Smart Taste isn't a whole wheat pasta, but it is super nutritious and everyone in my family loved. Even little Owen had a few noodles. He loved playing with the box, too:



Dawson asked for "that same pasta, but I want the curly noodles! And with butter!" Buttered noodles is his favorite dish. I'll gladly make it for him any time using the Ronzoni Smart Taste rotini.
