mezze penne

The listings show mezze penne made from organic red lentils and water, a corn-and-rice blend, and 100% durum wheat semolina.

Descriptions highlight ridged surfaces (including ridges inside the tube) that help sauce cling, extra-large tube shapes on some items, and a bronze cut on one option to create extra texture for better sauce adherence.

Suggested pairings include red and white sauces, pesto and marinara, meatballs or seafood, creamy sauces like Alfredo or mushroom sauce, and combinations with vegetables or stews.

The listing notes the red lentil mezze penne provides 14 g of protein per ½‑cup serving and describes it as having fewer carbs and calories than traditional pasta; it also lists B vitamins, folate, magnesium, iron, potassium, and calcium.

Listings recommend using mezze penne in oven bakes and casseroles, skillet dishes, pasta salads, lazy lasagna, hearty soups, and other baked or stewed preparations.

Multiple items are noted as made in Italy or imported from Italy.
