Pizza Hut Tuscani Pasta

pasta.jpgPizza Hut is branching out and has introducedTusacni Pasta.

It comes in 2 flavors, Meaty Marinara and Creamy Chicken Alfredo.

We got to try out the Meaty Marinara flavor. It was delivered to our door just as promised, and, you know what?

It was really good.

I was mildly skeptical that pasta could survive the delivery process still warm, but the aluminum pan was carefully insulated in a cardboard box and it was still quite warm.

The pasta itself was done very well, there was lots of meat and cheese, not like some fast-food type pasta that looks like it might have accidentally run into some sauce.

It's a great alternative to pizza delivery. Though it's not exactly gourmet fare, we loved it and it would be an option for an informal dinner gathering.

Tuscani Pastas are $11.99 each and it feeds four, and comes with breadsticks. There was plenty for us and 3 kids.

Try it out!

Mario:

I have not tried them and I don't intend to. I don't understand why you would want to spend $11.99 on something from PH when it can cost less then $5.00 to make it yourself. By the way, there is no such thing as meaty marinara. Look, chop up a small onion and a couple of cloves of garlic. Brown them in olive oil. Add a large can of crushed tomatoes, and a small can of tomatoe paste if you want to add thickness. Add a dash of oregano and basil )fresh if you can get it). Let it simmer for thirty minutes to an hour, while you have your spaghetti cooking on the side. Serve some "real" marinara sauce to your hungry kids after putting the change back in your wallet. Cheers!

David Bennett:

I think this is a fake marketing blog. All the posts are product positive and have a funny sterile smell. (Maybe Busy Mom should pick up Lysol as a client :)

Charles Tsai:

I agree with David; the presentation of the "blogs" are a little too much like marketing ads/campaigns/blogs I've seen.

If this isn't a fake marketing blog, I think that you - Busy Mom - should write about products and present them in a different style. The way you're doing it now just doesn't seem genuine.

Not a marketing blog, I happen to like the things I've written about.

I don't offer to review things I don't think I can use or wouldn't enjoy.

Pasta not very difficult. It's good or not good, and it was good.

Your results may vary.

pastalover:

I ordered the Creamy Chicken Alfredo last night and was extremely skeptical about it being good. I expected to take a couple bites and then regret ordering and paying for it, but to my surprise it was actually really good! My husband even liked it and he is one of the most picky eaters I know.

As far as the snide post above about "why would you pay to order out instead of cooking it yourself" WELL........some of us don't have as much time as YOU. I cook in when I can, and will order out (without shame) when I want/need to.

Guilty Pleasure:

I expected it to suck as well. I'm now waiting until 11:00 so the PH on Wilshire can open up and get delivering. This is one of those things you are just going to have to try... but don't tell anyone I told you it was good.

We're trying the Alfredo tomorrow night - sounds promising! Thx for the heads up! ;-)

Lar:

Mine Creamy Alfredos taste like feets. bad Pizza Hut !

waste of money:

i have worked for ******* "hut" and i will tell you they mistreat their food and their employees. i would never order from a one of these establisements unless i was drunk and desperate. as said before you can make great, authentic chicken alfredo at home (cheaper) and not worry if your chicken is a month overdue and if people that dont wash their hands after the restroom are preparing your family meal. the pastas are more than likely frozen, the meat processed with soy, and the sauces are bland. we threw out at least 2 full pans of this away after a buffett.

Jacque Damon:

you know there is a reason why we live in a society such as we do we all have choices we can make I worked at a Pizza Hut in MT we took pride in everything we made just because you worked at a bad one doesn't make them all bad. As to the food again choices not everyone will like it and not everyone has to like it. If you like your home made pasta and have the time to make it great if you don't have time and want someone to make your meal you also have that option. I think this is a fine blog I may not agree with every review but so what just because I make like one product over another doesn't everyone else will, If we all liked the same food well we wouldn't have the choices we do.
