Ancient Harvest, Quinoa Pasta

Our local grocer had a sale on Ancient Harvest Brand Quinoa Pasta
I'm normally not a big pasta eater.
Non GF pasta is like a dollar for 2 servings. Comparatively GF pasta is about four dollars per serving. And since I can get protean for that price, I usually just cook rice, or bake a potato.
But since they were on sale I picked up a few boxes to add to the week's menu.

First up: Quinoa Pasta-Elbows
Cooked the whole box.
It made about three main dish sized servings.
They held there shape well. Cooked evenly. Good texture, good flavor.
I covered it in melted Colby cheese and added cooked sausage.

Hubby did not even know they were GF*

Second Contestant: Quinoa Pasta-Shells
Cooked the whole box.
It made 4 side-dish sized servings.
The shells lost some of there shape once cooked. Cooked evenly. Flavor was good.
Texture was a little dry,( if you can imagine how that works.)

Had them with Alfredo sauce and shrimp.

Third Contestant: Quinoa-Corn Pagodas

Cooked the whole box.

It made three main dish sized servings.

The Pagodas lost some of there shape once cooked.

Cooked evenly. Flavor was very good.

I made them into Pasta salad. But the leftovers did not keep very well. (got mussy in the dressing)
