Kaizen Food Company Low Carb Fusilli Pasta, 3-Pack (3×8 oz) — 20g Protein, 6g Net Carbs per Serving, Gluten-Free

Kaizen Low Carb Fusilli is a lupin-bean based, gluten-free pasta delivering 20g protein and just 6g net carbs per 2 oz serving — sold as three 8 oz cartons.

Designed for anyone who loves traditional pasta texture but wants to cut carbs and boost protein, this fusilli swaps wheat and starchy flours for lupin bean flour. The result is a plant-based, grain-free noodle that cooks like classic pasta, resists becoming gummy, and supports low-carb meal planning without artificial additives.

How does Kaizen Fusilli compare to regular pasta?

Compared with conventional wheat pasta, Kaizen fusilli offers far fewer digestible carbohydrates and substantially more protein per serving. It’s crafted to mimic the firmness and bite of traditional pasta without the same glycemic load.

• Approximately 80% fewer carbs than standard pasta
• 20 grams of protein per 2 oz serving
• 6 grams net carbs and higher fiber to increase satiety
• Gluten-free and grain-free formulation

Will it work in my favorite pasta recipes?

Yes — Kaizen fusilli was formulated to perform in a wide range of dishes from saucy weeknight meals to baked casseroles. It holds shape during boiling and integrates well with both creamy and tomato-based sauces.

• Boil 4–6 minutes depending on desired firmness
• Use in mac and cheese, baked ziti, pasta salads, and skillet dinners
• Resists overcooking if drained promptly and rinsed with warm water
• Neutral flavor that carries sauces and seasonings effectively

What is lupin bean and why is it used here?

Lupin bean is a legume valued for its protein and fiber profile, making it a strong alternative to pulses like chickpeas or lentils. Kaizen leverages lupin flour to create a noodle with high protein, low net carbs, and a texture that closely resembles wheat pasta.

• Plant-based, legume-derived flour with a dense protein content
• Helps reduce overall carbohydrate content without artificial fillers
• Contributes fiber that helps lower net carbs per serving
• Free from grains, shirataki, and starch-heavy flours

How do I prepare Kaizen Low Carb Fusilli for best results?

Preparation is straightforward and similar to regular pasta: bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add the fusilli, and stir to prevent clumping. Expect some foaming during the first minute; cook 4–6 minutes, then strain and pair with your preferred sauce.

• Use a large pot and plenty of salted water
• Stir when added to boiling water to reduce foaming
• Check texture at 4 minutes for al dente, up to 6 for softer bites
• Three 8 oz cartons per order, each carton contains four 2 oz servings

Who is this for? Kaizen Low Carb Fusilli is aimed at people seeking a lower-carb, higher-protein pasta alternative who don’t want to sacrifice familiar pasta texture. It suits those following low-carb, keto-friendly, gluten-free, or plant-based diets, plus anyone looking to add more protein and fiber into classic pasta meals without using artificial ingredients.
