Mueller's Protein Penne
What it is
It is made with ingredients that provide more of certain food components compared to traditional pasta. This penne is designed to be a satisfying option for those looking for a different kind of pasta in their meals. It cooks similarly to other dried pastas.
How people cook with it
This pasta is a versatile base for many dishes. It works well with a wide range of sauces and ingredients.
- With hearty meat sauces
- In baked pasta dishes
- Tossed with vegetables
- As a side dish
To prepare, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the penne and stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Cook according to package directions until the pasta is tender but still firm to the bite, often referred to as al dente. Drain the pasta well, reserving a little of the cooking water if desired to help loosen your sauce. Combine with your chosen sauce and ingredients immediately.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to standard wheat pasta, this penne is formulated to offer a different composition of food components. It maintains a similar texture and cooking time, making it an easy substitute in most recipes.
Who it is for

How to keep the rest
Store any unused, uncooked pasta in its original packaging or an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Ensure it is sealed to maintain freshness and prevent moisture absorption. Properly stored, it can last for a long time.
