We love Fasta Pasta and now there's a bigger version for bigger families!

 

I love the original Fasta Pasta maker. Just add water, pasta and pop it into the microwave. Nothing to watch, no pots or colander to wash. But the original Fasta Pasta was for small families. Now there's a brand new Family Size version that cooks up to 8 servings of pasta at a time! Saves time, energy and water. Use with spaghetti, fettuccine, macaroni, lasagna noodles, rotini and more. Once the video as we use it for the first time to make pasta. And we solve the mystery of why the instructions say “Lid Hole 2 = 8 servings” while the lid is marked with the numbers '1 & 3'. Okay, you don't have to video. I called Fasta Pasta and it turns out the first run had a mistake that wasn't caught before shipping. New versions are corrected. But it doesn't matter now that you know. Dishwasher safe. FDA approved microwaveable material. Made in the USA. My only compliant? The sides have water level indicator lines for serving sizes that are a bit hard to see. And there is just a touch of work for some pasta shapes. You're supposed to stir them once about halfway through the cooking process. No big deal, for sure. It's a simple device, but it works great.
