Ronzoni Smart Taste Review

Feeding my boys healthy, nutritious meals is always a concern, so I was excited to try pasta from the Ronzoni Smart Taste line, which offers a lot more than just great taste.

RONZONI® SMART TASTE™ is a new member of the New World Pasta family of brands. What's so special about RONZONI SMART TASTE? It's the first white pasta to be enriched with Fiber, Calcium and Vitamin D-- and lots of it. RONZONI SMART TASTE is an excellent source of Fiber and contains Calcium and Vitamin D equal to an eight-ounce glass of milk. Studies show that many diets are lacking in these three important nutrients. Plus, RONZONI SMART TASTE is lower in calories and fat than traditional pasta. That means RONZONI SMART TASTE is the same great taste -- the smart taste --your family loves but with greater nutritional value.

I was fortunate to receive some samples of Ronzoni Smart Taste, and I made something that I knew my boys would love--Spaghetti!

I cooked the spaghetti according to instructions, added broccoli, chicken and pasta sauce, and topped it with Parmesan cheese.

It was very delicious, but the true test would be with my boys.

Well, although they made quite a mess, they sure loved the spaghetti!

It tasted like any other spaghetti I've made before, but the fact that the Ronzoni Smart Taste spaghetti is lower in calories and fat than regular pasta and has more nutrients and Vitamins is a big plus, especially when trying to feed my growing boys.

Ronzoni Smart Taste is also available in Rotini, Angel Hair, Elbows, and other varieties of pasta.

The next time I need to make a pasta dish I wouldn't hesitate to pick up Ronzoni Smart Taste over other brands of pasta. If I can provide sources of essential nutrients and vitamins into my kids' meals in delicious ways, why wouldn't I?

Whenever I see a review for Ronzoni, I like to comment about how much I love it!
The Smart Taste you cannot tell the difference & what a big fiber kick!
I watch for when it's on sale and stock up.

Kids are definitely the true test....most of the time. In my home, it is my husband. He is the one that will react to things when I add the extra "health" kick to them. He is coming around, though, and appreciating it more and more. I have seen the Ronzoni,but never bought it. I will have to take a closer look!
