Caulipower Cauliflower Pasta is a new frozen, gluten-free pasta from the brand behind veggie-powered products like cauliflower crust pizzas, cauliflower breaded chicken tenders and cauliflower tortillas. The linguine and pappardelle-style cauliflower pastas boast 48% more fiber than traditional pasta, as well as half the amount of sugar as seen in leading gluten-free offerings.
Free from artificial colors, flavors and preservatives, Caulipower Cauliflower Pasta sets itself apart as an option that's said to "[taste] just like fresh pasta, with fewer calories than any other on the market — fresh, frozen, or dry," according to Caulipower founder and CEO Gail Becker.
While there are plenty of shelf-stable pasta products that are enriched with vegetables, including cruciferous ones like cauliflower, this one stands out for infusing freshness into the frozen pasta category.
