Delicious
"I’ve tried several gluten free pastas and Chickapea is my favorite. It doesn’t taste chalky like the others. Instead it’s very creamy tasting, almost buttery."
The small but mighty chickpea is packed full of protein, carbs, fiber, antioxidants, and numerous vitamins and minerals. Plus they taste great.
This powerhouse pea is not only super nutritious and packed with protein, but it releases little starch, which makes our pasta even easier to cook and taste more like traditional pasta.

The best pasta!
"I love Chickapea pasta! It's wonderful al'dente! It has higher protein and great taste!"
Best Chickpea pasta you can get!
"We have gluten allergies in our family so this has been the BEST pasta swap. We have tried almost every chickpea noodle on the market and these are by far our favorite. The Elbow noodles are our favorite!"
I felt like I was out of options!
"My children and husband all have celiac and I am allergic to rice. We lost our normal brand of noodles with the terriffs and I felt like I was out of options! My daughter and I had gone into one of our local healthfood stores searching if anything new popped up that we could enjoy and low and behold my 8yo daughter spots Chickapea on the top shelf. We took two boxes home that day and hot dang they were they surpassed my expectations! They cooked great, they were firm and didn't gloop. My children we happy! Even my husband loved them! As a mother who makes everything else from scratch I am so grateful to have a "cheat" and simple meal option again for our "fast food" nights! Thank you. THANK YOU Chickapea!!"

Q&A
- How much does the Chickapea spiral pasta swell when cooked? If I cook 100 g of dry Chickapea spirals, what is the typical weight for the cooked pasta al dente after draining the cooking water? And how about Chickape spirals cooked until soft, how much does the cooked pasta weigh after draining the water?
- Hi Michel! The weight of cooked pasta varies due to several factors, so there’s no exact number, but Chickapea pasta typically converts from dry to cooked at a factor of 1.6. Note that this is just the gram weight—nutrition facts remain the same. We hope this helps!
- Hi! Is the listed serving size for dry or cooked pasta? Thanks!
- Hi Elizabeth, the serving size on the nutrition table is based on dry pasta.
- how many ounces in a box. its ridiculous that this is not clearly listed and I have to ask
- Hi there! There are 8 oz (227 g) of pasta in a box. The NET WT is listed in the bottom left corner.
- what does this taste like?
- Chickapea pasta looks, cooks and tastes very similar to traditional pasta with a smooth texture and mild flavor. You can cook it al dente or softer to your liking. The trick to getting the best texture and taste is to use LOTS of water when you cook it. We recommend 16 cups of salted water.
