About Banza

Banza is a chickpea-based pasta known for its high protein and fiber content, offering a nutritious alternative to traditional wheat pasta. Made primarily from chickpeas, tapioca, pea protein, and xanthan gum, it boasts a gluten-free composition and higher levels of plant-based protein, making it popular among those seeking balanced meals. Originating from a modern twist on Italian cuisine, Banza replicates the taste and texture of classic pasta while catering to dietary preferences like vegan and gluten-free lifestyles. With about 25 grams of protein and 13 grams of fiber per serving, it supports healthy digestion and muscle maintenance. However, its calorie count is slightly higher than wheat pasta, and some may find it denser and more filling. Perfect for pasta dishes, it pairs well with traditional sauces and toppings while providing a nutritious, flavorful choice for health-conscious eaters.
