BarillaReady Pasta, Gemelli, 7 oz. Pouch (pack of 7)

Great, fast and easy!! No more waiting for the water to boil. Pasta was al dente . Perfect and delicious. I put pasta sauce on the plate, then the rotini and mixed. So quick!! Dinner in minutes!

These are excellent when you only need a serving or two of macaroni. Much quicker and more convenient than having to boil water to make traditional macaroni. Tastes just the same.

Love this product! Easy to ‘cook’. Makes a great, quick Mac & cheese. And is much more reasonably priced than the grocery stores!

As a busy college student who lives in a tiny dorm with limited cooking capabilities, these pouches have been a total lifesaver. Of course they don't quite replicate the taste of freshly made pasta, but they do a serviceable enough job. And considering how convenient they are, I think it's a fair trade-off anyway. All you need to do is microwave for a single minute, add some cheese/sauce/seasonings/etc. and you got yourself a quick, tasty, and decently filling meal.

This Ready Pasta is very tasty with a sauce of my choice. for quick and easy lunches or dinners. I have tried all available types. The Gemelli is my favorite since the small size of the pasta highlights a good sauce and good Parmesan cheese.I haven't decided to give away my multiple gallon pasta pot yet, but I am sure glad I no longer have to carry the pot with hot water and pasta from the stove to the sink to drain. The 60 second cooking time for Ready Pasta is better than a distracted cook at providing al dente pasta.

Obviously, it’s impossible to replicate home prepared pasta, but this is as close as you can get and it’s really quite good. I’ve been buying this brand for a couple of years now, and they changed the packaging & the pasta recipe recently, and improved it product in a big way. I liked it before, but it had more oil in it, which imparted a slightly odd taste, and the result was always a slightly chewy pasta even with extra microwaving. Still it was acceptable for an instant product . the new packages are 1 ounce less (7oz vs 8 oz), but for one person, it’s an excellent portion & the taste is very much improved. A great thing to have around for busy folks like me who come home from work desperately hungry, and HAVE to eat something or pass out lol. I bring them for hotel stays. Grab a jar of sauce from the local mini-mart & bingo, Micro & you’ve got a meal. I actually pack a jar in my luggage. For desperate kids at the hotel, bring a sauce packet donated from a cheap mac & cheese from home, and you can calm & comfort the little beasts without ever leaving the room. Trust me, I’ve done it!

Great to use for busy nights or a easy meal for younger kids to make on their own! Tastes great!

Wow! Pasta in a few minutes. Make a pasta salad, spaghetti dinner, a side,Tastes great-who ever thought this up was genius! Wish it came in more shapes.

Loved how easy it was to enjoy in so many different dishes!
