Tri-Color Rotini

A colorful version of a pasta salad favorite, Tri-Color Rotini means "colorful twists" and are two-inch lengths of thick screw-like pasta from Northern Italy. The shape was inspired by children, since they are fun to eat and pair well with a wide variety of sauces. Barilla^® Tri-Color Rotini is made with non-GMO ingredients.
