Love spaghetti but can’t stand the calories?   

Tried zoodles and spaghetti squash, but they’re just not cutting it? Counting calories got your knees weak and palms sweaty? Well, maybe it’s time to try Hearts of Palm spaghetti.  Even this hardcore pasta lover was made a believer! 

Hearts of Palm spaghetti noodles are one of the fastest-selling items on the grocery store shelves and most stores are having a hard time keeping up with the demand! This vegetable is enjoying the spotlight and dates back to the Mayan civilization. 

What is it, you ask? Hearts of palm pasta is culled from the inner core of certain palm trees.  Not an easy task.  The hearts of palm are then cut to look like spaghetti, fettuccini, or lasagna noodles. The noodles can be packed in cans, glass bottles, or foil bags.  If unopened, they do not need refrigeration and are the perfect portable lunch. Most hearts of palm are grown in Costa Rica, followed by Ecuador and then Bolivia.

 These noodles are super nutritious and have the following health benefits:

  • High in fiber

  • Gluten-free

  • Less than 1g natural sugar,

  • Very low in carbs (hello keto and paleo peeps!)

  • Zero cholesterol

  • Super low in calories. A 3-ounce serving has about 20 calories.

  • Part of your daily serving of vegetables

 It has a very faint artichoke flavor but quickly transforms into spaghetti bliss when topped with your favorite sauce. It only take 1-2 minutes to cook, saving lots of time in the kitchen.  Your tummy and body will thank you! 

 

Coming soon at your local Costco in the Midwest and Northeast regions.  Stay tuned!
