Heartland Pasta is a Yummy and Economical Gluten Free Option



Heartland Gluten Free Fusilli Pasta


Heartland Pasta is made from a rice flour blend. It is available in spaghetti, fusilli, and penne varieties. I found it in the pasta aisle at Wal-mart priced around $2 a package.

I prefer this rice and corn blend rather than straight corn pasta. When boiled it is less starchy and has a taste and texture closer to wheat pasta.

Tasting the pasta at the maximum recommended boiling time, I usually have to continue cooking another 2 minutes.

Preparing the penne and fusilli with butter or margarine and a generous portion of shredded cheese makes a nice macaroni and cheese dish. The spaghetti is great with traditional spaghetti sauce or served with shrimp scampi.
