Banza Shells & White Cheddar Mac and Cheese - High Protein, Gluten Free, and Lower Carb Protein Mac and Cheese - 5.5oz

Tasty and healthy. Great GF option

I love the taste of the cheese and texture of these noodles. The fiber and carbs are fantastic, and worth the price. Definitely worth buying over other boxed Mac.

I wanted to try this after trying the regular pasta from this brand to see how the sauce tasted because I enjoy the pasta from this brand so much. If you're used to a creamy, thick sauce, this isn't that kind of party. The sauce coats the noodles pretty well, but it isn't the thick cheese sauce from Velveeta, Easy Mac, or something similar. The flavor was a little bland, so I added a little za'atar and some red chili flakes, and that made it taste much better.This is the only brand I've tried for noodle alternatives that have the same bite as regular pasta and the same chew, so it's an easy choice for me. On top of that, when prepared, a box of easy mac has 1000 calories, depending on milk and butter options. This brand has half the calories, more protein, and more fiber; it's more expensive, but to me, with all the added nutrients, this is totally worth it.I can eat the entire box and not be kicking myself after for the caloric intake, if you need a little more volume or need to feed more people with this, add chicken or shrimp and spinach and you're all set.

It's hard to find tasty gluten free pasta with good texture. This one is great! The cheese sauce is delicious and not terribly fake tasking (looking at you Kraft Mac n cheese)

A healthy alternative, this was pretty good. A great value for the money paid. Will reorder.

I'm not sure what to think. No, it's not as good as pasta....but thr flavor is good and the texture isn't overall disgusting. That being said...it's higher in calories than regular pasta...but also higher in protein? Idk...regular pasta isn't bad for you....maybe just eat that in moderation. But if you really want an alternative...I actually like these. 3 stars may be low...but I don't know. I just don't see the benefits. The quality is solid.

Very healthy macaroni and cheese is made from Chick Peas and tastes absolutely delicious

These tasted good, and I bought them because I thought it was “healthier” than traditional wheat based pasta, and the price was pretty good at the time of purchase. Imo organic is a better option, but it can get expensive sometimes so I went for these hoping for the best. However, recently a non-profit organization tested the levels of glyphosate in Banza’s chickpeas pasta and they were pretty high (2,876 ppb). There are arguments by other organizations stating that these levels of glyphosate are not harmful, but I don’t trust it at all. Needless to say, I will not be buying these again.
