Introducing our story: we make Turtla chickpea pasta for a complete meal.

Rich in nutrients:

Chickpea pasta is made from whole chickpeas, meaning it retains a high content of fibre, protein, and other nutrients. Fibre is key to digestive health, while protein helps build and repair muscle.

Low glycaemic index:

Chickpea pasta has a lower glycaemic index compared to traditional wheat pasta. This means it does not cause a rapid spike in blood sugar levels, helping to stabilise energy and regulate appetite.

Gluten-free:

For those sensitive to gluten or living with coeliac disease, chickpea pasta makes a great alternative as it is naturally gluten-free. This is especially important given the growing awareness of gluten sensitivity and the needs of people suffering from coeliac disease.

A good choice for vegetarians and vegans:

Chickpea pasta is a vegan product, making it an excellent choice for those following a plant-based diet.

Dietary variety:

By using chickpea pasta, you can add variety to your diet.

Supports heart health:

Thanks to its high fibre content and low levels of saturated fats, chickpea pasta can help support heart health by reducing the risk of heart disease and high blood pressure.

Versatility in the kitchen:

Chickpea pasta is easy to prepare and pairs wonderfully with a variety of sauces, vegetables, and seasonings, giving you plenty of options for varied and delicious meals.

While it might not suit everyone, chickpea pasta definitely has its place in a healthy diet and can be a fantastic alternative to traditional pasta for those seeking nutritious and varied meals. Behind the idea are Tanja and Filip Slačanac. Tanja is a food technologist by profession who has been connected with food all her life, passing that passion on to her son Filip. As a young gastronomy enthusiast, Filip saw a great opportunity not only to pursue gastronomy, but also to create his own unique product. An added motivation at the time was his personal weight-loss journey. Since then, a balanced diet and exercise have made that struggle a thing of the past. Turtla pasta was right there on his journey—a true ally in shedding pounds thanks to its wholesome ingredients.

Choose Turtla pasta whether you consider yourself a foodie or not. It will give you a completely new perspective on healthy food because it is delicious, nutritious, satisfying, and pairs brilliantly with various sauces and dishes.
