Makes Good Lasagna with Uncooked Pasta
Find a recipe that calls for uncooked lasagna noodles so that there is enough moisture in the assembled lasagna to fully cook the noodles from the uncooked state. One noodle fits very nicely in my glass bread loaf pan, so I generally make more layers than is directed in the recipe; and may only make 1/2 a recipe. I'm only feeding 2 people.

Easy, tasty lasagna
I just made our first lasagna from these noodles last night and we were very pleased with the result. Just adding the dry noodles to the pan with the other ingredients makes preparation easy. Plus it tastes good.

Excellent alternative to high-glycemic pasta
I really like Chickpea products. Their lasagna noodles are cut with the fun "wavy" edges like traditional pasta.Because these noodles are made from chickpeas, they add a lot of flavor to my lasagnas. They're just better than standard pasta at taking on the flavors in the dish.The texture is very nice after initial baking. Reheating after refrigeration or freezing does cause these noodles to break down a bit, but that just makes for a creamier lasagna.These legume-based noodles have a great deal of nutrition per calorie, as opposed to flour pastas, and this is a big purchase factor for me.The only thing I didn't like is that a lot of the noodles get broken in transit. Every box seems to have a 20%-60% quantity of broken pieces, many of which are very very small. This turns lasagna-making into puzzle time! But I love the noodles and will continue to purchase them.

Tastes great
I am a diabetic lady, and when I eat traditional pasta I get a big sugar spike. I am so glad I discovered this type of pasta. It is high in protein, and it is so satisfying to be able to enjoy pasta dishes again!!

Under/Over cook problems
Unhappy with the texture whether cooked as directed or longer. Taste is "blah."

Tasty if cooked right!
I will start off by saying, these noodles are a great replacement if you're looking fora healthy alternative to your regular noodles. I felt good feeding these to my family, knowing that they're packed with protein and fiber, and carb sensitive.There is however a little learning curve with cooking these noodles, to get the right texture. had i read up on them a little more i probably would have known that. but its best to boil water then add noodles, then reduce water to a simmer and watch them closely so they don't get overdone, otherwise they turn out really mushy. When cooked correctly, the flavor is very similar to a regular noodle. to which i am very happy about!The other thing i will note on, is that the boxes are very small, and I'm not sure how you get 4 servings out of one individual box-- we used 2 boxes for a family of 4, but there was definitely no left overs. however this is a health food so maybe portion control?overall, i did enjoy using this pasta, and i will continue to use this pasta in replacement to grain noodles.

Best Gluten Free Pasta...period
I've tried every type of gluten-free pasta. Lentil, rice flour, corn, and even chickpea from other companies. The flavor, rigidity of the pasta, cook time... all of it. Just the best.I would highly recommend you try this pasta. They have different types. I would recommend that if you're using a warm sauce that you under cook by a minute or two and then let them finish in the sauce. They soak up sauce really well but will get soggy and break down if you cook them to "just-right" then put in the sauce.Flavor is unique unto itself as is every pasta that I've tried. There is no substitute for wheat flour. But the flavor from these seems to add to the dish not detract. Some of the lentil pasta I've had are so strong and some of the rice pastas are so weak in flavor.Try the various shapes and enjoy!!!
