Well, it\u2019s simple: Lupini pasta offers a boatload of protein and tons more gut-friendly fiber than the usual run-of-the-mill pasta ingredients\u2014think wheat-based flour and so on. In fact, just a two-ounce serving of lupini-based pasta offers 12 grams of fiber and 14 grams of protein. For context, traditional pasta has about seven grams of protein and 3 grams of fiber. Meanwhile, chickpea-based pasta has 12 grams of protein, yet only five grams of fiber per the same-sized serving.<\/p>\n<p>Although lupini bean pasta on its own stands to offer a bevy of nutrients and benefits, why stop there when you can easily up the stakes even more?
