Of course there are many people who don’t have a garden that’s mass-producing basil, and you can certainly make this with purchased basil pesto in a jar. I would cut the linguini into shorter pieces for this dish. I also think this recipe would be tasty made with Palmini Low-Carb Linguini (affiliate link) if you’re a Palmini fan. If you’re watching carbs you could make an even more carb-conscious variation by using twice as much zucchini and half as much pasta. How else can you make a version of this salad that’s lower in carbs? That makes the carb count much lower and makes the pasta much more affordable. So for this recipe, eight ounces of the pasta makes six servings. How to make Fiber Gourmet Light Pasta more affordable and reduce the carbs:Įven though the Fiber Gourmet Light Pasta varieties are all much lower in carbs than other pastas made from wheat, I like to make the carbs even lower by using this pasta in recipes with lots of other low-carb ingredients. For me it was such a treat to have “real” pasta without so many carbs that I bought a pack of 12, but if anyone finds it at a lower price for fewer boxes I’d love to know where you find it. But if you buy only two boxes at a time at Amazon, it’s nearly $10.00 a box. The best price I found was at Amazon where you can buy a package of 12 boxes and get it for $3.99 per box. I looked all around the web and didn’t find any site that had a low price for it sold by the box when you added in the shipping costs. However the bad news about the Fiber Gourmet Pasta is that it’s pricey, even in a recipe like this where we used one box to make 6 servings. This pasta with lots of fiber reduced the net carbs in this recipe to about 18 net carbs per serving. What lower-carb pasta did we use for this recipe?Īfter I heard about Fiber Gourmet Light Pasta (affiliate link) from a few people, I bought some online and we absolutely loved it in this recipe.
