Noodles.
They come in all different shapes, sizes, and some aren’t even made out of flour!
It shouldn’t surprise you to know that most pasta noodles are made without eggs.
But what might surprise you, is that those aren’t the only noodles available!
Take a look at the collage below, and think about expanding your horizons on your next pasta night.

*Tinkyada is a local (Scarborough) made, 100% vegan rice pasta brand!
Unico, No Name, Ital Pasta, Catelli, PC and De Cecco have many different shapes of pasta that are suitable for vegans. If I had filled the collage with every shape they had available, it would’ve been way too big! So instead, I decided to pick 1 shape from each brand to represent what they offer.
Most brands that I’ve found tend to stick with one way to make their noodles. So if you find one shape that doesn’t contain egg (or milk?), chances are good their other shapes won’t.
Some of these brands are also specifically Canadian, so I’m not sure if they’re available in other countries.
