It’s quite probable that you’ve never in your life eaten a serving of pasta that packs 7 grams of fiber into fewer than 300 calories. Consider this your initiation. The secret is in the noodles, which Kashi has built using a farmer’s pantry of whole grains: wheat, oats, rye, brown rice, triticale, barley, and buckwheat. Slap a little protein on there and you’ve got a complete meal. Canned or leftover rotisserie chicken both work great.
