Tons of veggies are packed into this whole grain penne recipe. Tossed with a delicious roasted red pepper sauce and finished with briny capers.
When you’re trying to shed some pounds (more on my story coming very soon), you have to make each meal count. More bang for your calorie buck, I say. For me, that meant increasing my fiber intake at each meal. Since both my husband and I are runners, we regularly work pasta meals into our dinner rotation, particularly the night before our long runs. We used to slurp up regular semolina spaghetti noodles like nobody’s business but over the past couple of years we gradually made the switch to whole grain pasta. When we packed the dishes with vegetables, protein (chicken, shrimp, etc.) and tasty sauces – or “goodies” as we call them – the kids didn’t even notice the difference.
Each of our boys favors different pasta shapes. The 7-year old insists that the rotini (also known as “curly”, “twists” or “tornadoes” in our house) taste better than any other pasta in our pantry, while the 10-year old swears by the penne (in his favorite baked ziti recipe). My husband will eat whichever variety is placed in front of him as long as there are plenty of vegetables involved. The man’s healthy eating habits put us all to shame! As for me, I’m not picky. As long as it tastes good and keeps me full for several hours, I’m game for any whole grain variety.
Whenever I cruise the pasta aisle at the grocery story, the boxes of Barilla® Whole Grain pasta always catch my eye and eventually pile into my cart.
Barilla® Whole Grain pastas are made with 51% whole wheat and pack a whole lot of fiber. To be specific, the whole grain varieties have three times as much fiber as the regular kinds. If you are trying to keep up with the recommended daily intake of fiber, switching to whole grain pasta is a pretty easy way to do this. We work it into some of our favorite recipes, such as Healthy Lasagne with Turkey, Pesto & Peppers and Fusilli with Teriyaki Salmon & Vegetables.
If you are not convinced the whole grain variety is going to float your pasta boat, I urge you to give it a try. Barilla® makes the challenge even more tempting. If you don’t love their whole grain pasta, you will get a free box of the Barilla® blue box pasta. So, what’s stopping you?

The recipe:
The sauce:
In the bowl of a food processor or heavy-duty blender, combine roasted red peppers, toasted almonds, garlic, cilantro, Parmesan cheese and lime juice. Puree together until just combined. With motor running, slowly pour in the olive oil and puree until the sauce is smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
Transfer the sauce to a small saucepan set over medium-low heat. Whisk in vegetable broth and heat the sauce. Keep warm over low heat.
The rest:
Cook the whole grain penne according to package instructions. Drain.
While the pasta is cooking, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add cauliflower and cook until the cauliflower is tender. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cauliflower from cooking further.
In the same pot, combine the penne and about 3/4 of the cauliflower. Pour in roasted red pepper sauce and toss to coat. Stir in the capers. Set the pot over medium heat and re-heat to serving temperature. Taste and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Serve, topping each portion with the remaining cauliflower, minced cilantro and grated Parmesan cheese.

I think the thing I like most about Barilla whole grain pasta is the nutty flavor.
Jessen says
I love the nuttiness of it, and the fact that it’s more sturdy than regular pasta and has a bite to it when cooked to al dente.

I love that it is a healthy alternative to regular pasta. Also, the nutty flavor is delicious.
Psychgrad says
I like the tool on their website to help you find a recipe based on who you’re serving, the type of pasta you want, etc.
I also like their commercials….the one where the neighbour drops off a box of pasta after seeing the woman deal with sticky messed up pasta.

i love that Barilla tastes like “regular” pasta (non-whole grain) but has the added fiber. it was an easy switch for our family to make, to take small steps to healthier family meals. and [drum roll] I was thrilled to see this recipes posted b/c I just happen to have the barilla pasta on hand + a large cauliflower, some red pepper pesto I picked up at our winter farmer’s market, and a jar of capers. looks like dinner is decided!! can’t wait to make this.
Kris Mullen says
I can usually find Barilla on sale at my local grocery store which is always a plus. I like adding extra fiber to my diet so it works for me.

Like many others have said, I like the nutty flavor of whole grain pasta. I also like the firm texture – reminds me of slightly undercooked white pasta which is what I like. Extra fiber is always good too.

The texture. Some whole-grain pastas can be slimy or really dry. Barillas holds up well and I like that it has flavor. Some whole grain pastas try too hard to hide the fact that they’re made from whole grains. I don’t think it’s a flavor to be hidden, I think it can really enhance a dish.

Now that Barilla makes a whole grain pasta that tastes good I’ll be eating healthier. And the taste guarantee makes sure I’ll be trying it.

I like that it contains three times more fiber than regular pasta.

I like Barilla Whole grain because I don’t have to sacrifice taste for the sake of being healthy. It is seamless in any of my recipes.
Interesting combination of flavors in your recipe, I’m intrigued and think I have to try it!

I love that with Barilla whole wheat pasta you feel like you’re really getting your pasta’s worth with each bite! When every carb counts, it’s important to know that you are getting the fiber you need, the taste you want, and a meal that’s healthy.
