A Legit Keto Pasta? Aviate Lupini Rotini Review

[@kevinjorgensen1046]

Been a pasta guy for most of my 71 years but I have to tell you I'm so use to Shirataki noodles now I have no desire to go back to regular spaghetti. I empty a bag into a strainer, wash thoroughly, cut up with scissors, place in boiling water for 2 minutes, strain, then add to a frypan with some ghee and pepper and salt. Toss and turn for 2 minutes then add the sauce + cheese. Suits me!

[@hawkeye1982]

I totally agree! I saw a great recipe for using the rice version to make sushi. It's great!

[@dawnkrantz159]

Do you have a particular brand you like?

[@Mrs.TJTaylor]

Yup, me too, exactly. Wish it weren’t so expensive.

[@brendastoetzer9033]

I still haven't adjusted to the texture...like chewing a mouthful of rubber bands.

[@hawkeye1982]

@@brendastoetzer9033 do you make them like Kevin wrote? The dry frying part is so important for the texture.

[@georgewolff4491]

Linda here~ I love all of your honest observations. Courtney cracks me up! She doesn’t pull any punches and calls it like she see it! Or I guess I should say, as she ‘tastes’ it. That’s why I love your channel, Steve…I can expect GENUINE honesty from the whole family! My kind of people! 😂😊❤️👍🏻

[@pagesalivetheater]

Special thank you to your gracious family, who are both willing to try these foods- and to eat on camera! Nicely done, all. And thank you Steve! Your reviews mean so much to us. #USA

[@SeriousKeto]

Because this question keeps getting asked, I'll pin a response here. "How does this compare to the Perfect Keto mac & cheese pasta?" Answer: It's been a while since I've had the Perfect Keto pasta, but all lupini pasta I've tried has a similar texture. Both are more dense than wheat pasta, and can get much softer than traditional pasta if you overcook it. I feel like the Aviate pasta didn't get mushy as easily as the Perfect Keto pasta. I like that the Aviate pasta is rotini, which allows more sauce to cling to it. I also calculated the price per gram and the Aviate is about 10% less expensive. All that said, if you've tried a lupini pasta in the past and not liked it, I don't think the Aviate brand is going to change your opinion. If, however, you've liked lupini pasta, then I can be pretty certain you'll like the Aviate brand.

[@brendastoetzer9033]

Thanks for sharing as I was just going to ask how it compares. I found the PK pasta kind of gummy too, but it's a good sub for regular pasta if that craving kicks in.

[@debbiesue4287]

I can understand people not liking lupini pasta because of the texture. It's heavier. I always describe it as sort of pasta that's made a bit too thick. I do find it works better to either put it in soup where it can just keep absorbing liquid slowly or to bake it after you boil it like you did. Every time I've tried to just put a sauce over it And eat it like that it just overpowers the sauce and is not good. However I Think it tastes good if you cook it right. I will definitely give this brand a try. I Think one of the pluses to lupini pasta For me is that because it has a heavier feel I am satisfied eating smaller portions of it than I would regular wheat pasta.

[@EK--ry3lr]

Great summary. I enjoyed the PK mac and cheese.

[@sheshechic]

Not overly mushy, not overly firm, no odd flavors or smells, sounds good to me. I can't wait until noodles like these cost less. Thank you for all you and your family do! ❤

[@kendrickhoward9444]

Thank you, for this video. Ordered this right away. Thanks for the coupon. Had the pasta with keto meatballs, red sauce and cheese. Very good.

[@tennismom58]

#US I’m very excited to try these noodles. Since eating keto I haven’t found pasta that will satisfy my family. Thanks for the video!

[@amandacarson2742]

So looking forward to giving this a try. I’ve been keto for about five years now and could really use a good noodle replacement.

[@catherinepedri7382]

Love that you are so thorough in explaining the texture and taste of the food. So nice to see your family participate with you. Really appreciate that you care to help us out. God bless you and your family

[@kimberlyd1324]

The best low carb pasta is Steve’s recipe made from Chicken. It is a little bit of work and has the 2 modernist pantry specialty ingredients you’ll have to order, but it is the absolute best! No, it doesn’t taste like chicken at all and to get the noodle firmer, I use a cooked fresh chicken breast vs canned chicken. I’ve had non keto friends try it and they are in shock when I tell them what it’s made of. I think of all the recipes, that was the top game changer for me! I appreciate that recipe more than you know steve!

[@barbarachen1428]

Thanks for the cooked chicken tip. I'll be trying this. Canned chicken has such a distinctive taste...I don't love it in chicken pizza crust but if I used fresh ground chicken that flavor is absent and I vastly prefer it. I've done these noodles with various forms of eggs and it hasn't quite been worth the effort.

[@mariecohen3578]

I agree that Steve’s chicken pasta is the best and so economical once you have those extra ingredients. They actually go a long way. I start with a grocery store roast chicken and weigh out 3 oz

[@mariecohen3578]

..portions which I freeze.

[@jtsra7]

Thanks for the review on that, I'm very curious about it. So it really doesn't taste like chicken?! I saw video that uses boiled eggs instead, have you tried with eggs? Since pasta is made from eggs and flour I figured that version probably tastes the closest to actually pasta. Also, do you eat all your pasta that day or can it be stored and if you store it how are you storing it? Thanks for any feedback!

[@kimberlyd1324]

@@jtsra7 It makes a large batch and I can get 2-3 meals for 2 people out of it. I just store the noodles in a container in the fridge. No special way to store them. I can say 100% that I do not taste chicken. Another thing I do different than steve is try to do one long strand of noodle and then cut it after it’s firm into manageable pieces. I find when you start and stop the noodles, they have a bulbous end on there that I dont like. If you want to really go above and beyond and make them look like the real deal, I’ve added a tiny bit of buttercup yellow food dye (not for the food purists) to the batter to give an egg like color. I’d say give it a try. It is work but worth it.

[@dianefriedericks9236]

I’m glad that there are more choices for pasta but I still have a problem with the cost of any of these products. Some of us just can’t afford them. 😢

[@christinelippincott5189]

I love the family reviews. You guys are honest for sure. I find that with alternatives, the cooking times need to be longer. It's no surprise that you guys liked the baked dish better. Thanks #USA

Thank you Steve for another wonderful video. It’s always fun when you get multiple views thank you. #USA.

[@monap-2012]

I tried Perfect Keto mac and cheese which is also made with Lupin flour. I agree that the texture is not quite there but for someone who hasn't had mac and cheese in years, it was a nice treat.

[@ketokat333]

Hi steve ….not sure but maybe you needed to boil them more in the water to get rid of the denseness….coz Lupin is more beany and needs to be cooked more …the baked one was better coz it further cooked in the oven ….carry on with your amazing work !!!…lotsa love

[@Chelle7174]

I'm a big texture person when it comes to my food. I just can't get past the texture in the konjac noodles 🤢 It's so nice of you to do this giveaway! Keto products can be expensive when you're on a budget so I appreciate the chance to give this item a try Thanks and good luck everyone 🤤🍝 #US

Sounds like a good option to pair without having the PK box and cheese. Thanks for posting.

Somehow I missed this video until now. Based on your review, I'm definitely willing to give it a try. Having the coupon code makes the price a little easier to 'swallow'. Pun intended. But seriously, thank you and the family for the honest review.

I actually made a pretty amazing pasta bake with it this past weekend. I'll have to replicate that recipe for a video soon.

[@keytones9280]

Interesting that everyone seemed to find the baked pasta more appealing; I have noticed that if I cook the lupini pasta a little more than I do regular pasta, especially by baking it after the initial boil, it improves the texture a bit. I really want to try this brand. Thanks Steve! #USA

[@dorothygrierson2740]

I love the way you do the work for us . Your a star

[@barbarachen1428]

Thanks, Steve. I'll probably try this because it's rotini shaped. I was so bummed that Jazilupini never took off. I even followed up with them a few times asking when they were going to launch for real. I really enjoyed it (although it too was on the firm side) and the whole family was willing to eat it even before husband and son were keto. Right now, my best homemade pasta is a hybrid version of Anita's (Ketogenic Woman) that I make with only carton egg whites--no yolks. She has a version with psyllium husk and a carnivore version with pork rinds. I like to do a version halfway between so the psyllium has no chance to get overly gummy and make the batter too thick. I cut it into fettucine and the texture has a really good bite. If I freeze it in marinara, it doesn't dehydrate. #USA

[@knuckledraggertv2284]

Thanks Steve. I used the link to try it out. As an Italian on keto, I sooo miss pasta.

[@aviatefoods6998]

Thanks so much!

[@The_Keto_Klingon]

I absolutely agree about the texture of Lupini pasta. I've only experienced the Perfect Keto Mac and cheese pasta so my experience is not vast. I have found that if I just slightly over do those it helps (not eliminate but helps) lessen that rubbery not so clean bite. You have to be careful because it is a balancing act to get right. I hope these noodles will make that even easier with a better flavor. #USA

[@rachellaufenberg6961]

I was wondering how this pasta compares to the perfect keto Mac. That's all I have ever tried as well. If it is similar I would prefer getting this so I can make what I want with the pasta

[@ReadMeSeymour]

I'd be interested in trying this. #US Edamame pasta has been my go-to ever since I discovered it a few months ago. 6 net carbs and 24g of protein per serving. A serving is huge and super filling. It has the most "normal" pasta texture I've found in any low-carb noodle, no funny taste, easy to make, holds up well, it's perfect!

[@paularaulinaitis3068]

I spotted this video during the day (while working) and could not WAIT to see your review. I was a bit disappointed with your families assessment of the pasta but at least it didn't taste like the underside of a lawnmower! As someone who purchased the Phillips compact pasta maker AND paid a crazy amount of money to make her own lupin pasta (and regretted it) I feel your pain on their review. I have not yet found a keto friendly pasta that I/we like in our house. I am an avid fan and trust your taste -- and love the videos with your fam! ! #USA

[@-.Steven]

Before watching the entire video. To avoid carbs, and all that goes with gmo grains, I use spaghetti squash "noodles" for my "Steven's killer spaghetti" recipe. Thanks for the video!

[@bigjefffromjegssss8411]

#USA I would love to try these noodles. I have been on a 165lb weight-loss journey so far and have another 75lbs to lose. I am a type 2 diabetic that was taking 3-4 insulin injections a day along with my long acting insulin. I am proud to say that I haven't had to take one insulin injection in over 5 months now. I no longer take my long acting insulin either. I look forward to losing the remaining 75lbs although I know it will require a lot of hard work because the weight loss has already started to slow down. I love watching your channel and getting new ideas along with some do's and don'ts. Keep up the good work and thank you for helping all of us out in our journey.

[@CallieCatCuddles]

I moved in with family when I was really ill and didn't realize that they ate a ketogenic lifestyle. Over the next 7-8 months I (accidentally) lost 80 pounds that depression and chronic fatigue had put on my frame. I am getting back to who I used to be and I believe that this way of eating and intermittent fasting has been largely responsible for that, because I've not had any energy to exercise. I've missed bread, pasta, and potatoes, but the improvements in my health have kept me from backsliding. However, if there's something more satisfying than zucchini "noodles" for Italian style dishes, I'd be really glad to incorporate them back into my diet. These new pastas sound like, if you treat them to some special care, they'll fill back the hole that giving up carbs left. Thank you for your efforts to improve our diets with all your experiments. I only found your channel recently, but you've definitely got a new faithful follower!

[@Ricksasha]

I just tried to order the rotini through the provided link but you are currently sold out. I have not tried your pasta yet, but I LOVE Aviate lupini flakes, I add cheddar cheese and it tastes EXACTLY like the cheese grits I grew up eating here in North Carolina, but with a far superior nutrition profile. I am so passionate about lupin/lupini flour, and the amazing nutrition it provides. Low carb and low oxalate are my two biggest goals in every meal I eat, and lupini flour is the best tasting, healthiest choice, by far. I would LOVE to try your pasta, so far I have enjoyed Lulupasta, but if yours tastes anywhere near as good as your flakes, I'm sure it will be amazing. Fingers crossed I win. :) #USA
