CONTEST CLOSED: Barilla Piccolini Rich in Fiber Giveaway!

Calling all pasta lovers! I hear fairly frequently from people that want to eat healthier and choose point-friendly pasta but they just aren’t fans of the texture and flavor of wheat varieties. I happen to love pasta of any kind (wheat, white, whole grain, protein enriched, fiber enriched, you name it) but when Barilla contacted me about trying their new Piccolini Rich in Fiber White Pasta varieties, I got pretty excited on behalf of all you wheat pasta haters. Besides being cute (Piccolini is code for mini pasta) these varieties have the same WW P+ values as wheat pasta and three times the fiber as white pasta, but they look, feel and taste just like traditional white pasta.

Barilla Piccolini Rich in Fiber comes in three varieties: mini penne (ridged tubes cut on the bias), mini conchiglie (ridged shells) and mini rotini (spirals). I used the rotini in my Creamy Stove Top Macaroni & Cheese this past week and it was absolutely delicious. It really does look, taste and feel just like traditional white pasta, just for less P+!

Want to try it for yourself? One lucky winner will receive SIX boxes of Barilla Piccolini Rich in Fiber as well as TWO coupons for a free box!
