“Pasta alternatives made from fresh vegetables is a growing trend that we’ve been developing for quite some
time; we wanted to find a tasty way to cater to a variety of dietary needs and meal preferences expressed by our guests, and our
Veggie Noodle does just that,” said Nick Graff, executive chef at Noodles & Company. “Our new Veggie Noodle is packed with crisp
flavor and freshness, in both taste and texture, and offers a perfect complement to the delicious dishes we serve, especially in
some of our fan favorites such as Pesto Cavatappi, Penne Rosa and Thai Green Curry.”
“Veggie Noodles give our guests a lighter noodle base for enjoying our global flavors they know and love in an
entirely new style,” said Jonathan Tress, vice president of marketing at Noodles & Company. “Whether guests follow gluten-free and
grain-free diets, or for those who just wish to change the way they approach vegetables and build healthier eating habits, Veggie
Noodles allow guests to further customize their favorite dishes according to their dietary preferences.”
Noodles & Company offers guests familiar and global flavors from around the world. Each dish is carefully
handmade to guests’ specifications, using only the freshest ingredients, including 14 fresh vegetables that are prepped throughout
the day along with other high-quality ingredients including cage-free eggs; organic milk and tofu; and naturally raised pork,
including bacon and meatballs.
Veggie Noodles are currently offered in 12 restaurants throughout the Baltimore area as well as one in
