Keto Pastabilities Part 3!🍝

As an Amazon Associate I share affiliate marketing strategies with awesome people like you, naturally my content may contain affiliate links for products I use and love. If you take action (i.e., subscribe, make a purchase) after clicking one of these links, you won’t pay more, but I'll earn a small commission on qualifying purchases, which I will probably use to buy more keto products!


There is another way to get great pasta, but in a more natural way: go with the products made with Hearts of Palm. Besides being great tasting, the good thing about these products is that they count as a veggie because they are a veggie! 🥦


Of course, you can make your zoodles with zucchini, yellow squash, cucumber, and cabbage, but you can purchase the Hearts of Palm pasta already done for you, and it’s really, really delicious! I like it a lot. I‘ve made several things with it, and the recipes are on Virtaworks, but probably my favorite way is to use the lasagna noodles for different flavors of lasagna. I swear it tastes SO close to carby noodles. I‘ve also taken the lasagna noodles, added stuffing and rolled them up, then baked them, which turned out fantastic!

I think the key with the Hearts of Palm is when you have rinsed them, put them in boiling water and boil the heck out of them! They are pretty crunchy, naturally, and this does not make them mushy at all but gives them more of an al dente texture. I will boil them for 15-20 minutes. I think the box might say two, but I can’t exactly remember. But it’s not enough, in my opinion.

So far, I‘ve only seen two companies that sell the Hearts of Palm pasta. I’ve tried them both, and I don’t really have a favorite, but Natural Heaven has more shapes, including two rice varieties. It’s all very, very good. They even have mashed Hearts of Palm. I prepared it the same way I do the Cauliflower Mash a la George and it comes out very close to the same taste that it does with cauliflower.


Take a leap of faith and try some Hearts of Palm, I think it will surprise you, it did me!

Natural Heaven has so many ways to try it, and it all is very good. Don’t forget to boil it longer and make a great lasagna! (Click on photo below to buy)




The other company is Palmini (click on photo to buy) and their products come in bags or cans. This variety pack is the bags. This brand is very good also. Boil this brand an extra long time, too. 🍝




I still have not covered all the keto/low-carb pasta out there, but these are my favorites. I’m always looking for an even better noodle! The search will continue!😀
