Has anyone made a recipe with this type pasta?

I am making the one pot creamy pasta and wondered if it will come out tastig ok with whole wheat pasta? That is all I have (I was trying to eat healthier and never used it) lol till now. TIA!

I actually prefer the tast of whole wheat pasta (it's slightly nuttier), and my husband is getting used to it - or, at least has stopped complaining!

You might have to cook it a little longer, but otherwise it works just as well.

I usually use whole wheat pasta. IMO, regular pasta does taste better, but the whole wheat stuff is good enough - not so bad that I quit buying it. My family eats it w/o complaints.

I have always used whole wheat pasta and nobody has ever said anything negitive. I think if you don't make a big deal out of it, most people won't even notice.

I agree - don't even say anything about it.

I've used it with the one pot creamy pasta & the toasted angel hair W/sausage & peppers & no one has said a word. Actually a lot were glad that we could use it!!

So should I cook it longer than regular pasta, overall everyone??
