Barilla PLUS Pasta

Made from wholesome multi-grain ingredients, Barilla PLUS offers a well-rounded approach to balanced nutrition with the great taste and premium ingredients people expect from Barilla.

Barilla PLUS goes far beyond the benefits of whole-wheat pasta, first by offering a taste, color and texture similar to traditional Barilla pasta, resulting in a palate-pleasing meal, and also by delivering twice as much fiber as regular pasta.  With 40-percent more protein than regular pasta, Barilla PLUS also is a good source of protein. Furthermore, Barilla PLUS contains heart-healthy omega-3 and is lower in fat than other protein sources like chicken, ground beef and salmon – nutrition never tasted so good. 

Barilla Sauce – Garden Vegetable

We start with fresh, diced tomatoes and olive oil to provide the same richness and thickness found in homemade sauces. Then we add the freshest ingredients–like mushrooms, garlic, sweet peppers, olives, and basil–to create our authentic, premium collection of Italian pasta sauces. Our Traditional Red Sauces bring the flavors of Italy to America.

Based on a traditional Italian country recipe, Barilla Garden Vegetable Sauce melds the lively tang of tomato with a variety of coarsely chopped, sautéed vegetables - delicate zucchini, tasty eggplant, and sweet red bell pepper - as onions and herbs add zesty accents.
