Are you ready to get in the Zone?
Dr. Sears Zone Balanced Diet has extended its product line to include fusilli pasta.
Zone products tout a balance of protein, fat and carbohydrates.
A 2-ounce serving of the pasta yields 21 grams of protein and no fat.
A suggested way of eating the pasta is with olive oil and Parmesan. I decided to dress the pasta up with tomato sauce and meatballs.
You can tell this is a diet/health product (ingredients include pea protein isolate, soy protein and egg whites).
A pea taste was definitely detectable. I needed the cover of a sauce to appreciate the product's goodness.
For people looking for a protein-fueled pasta to add to their diet, this is one product that fits.
