Think Thin Introduces Low Carb Pasta Sauce Just the Way Mama Used to Make. Really.


RENO, Nev. -- When you grow up in an Italian household like Prime Health Dietary Supplements Founder and President Lizanne Falsetto falsetto (fôlsĕt`tō) [Ital.,=diminutive of false], high-pitched, unnatural tones above the normal register of the male voice, produced, according to some theories, by the vibration of only the edges of the larynx. , there's always a pot of sauce simmering on the stove. So when she set out to create Think Thin Low Carb Pasta Sauces, Lizanne was determined to recreate the authentic taste she'd always known.

"I remembered the natural sweetness that came out of the tomatoes when they were slow cooked in the traditional way," she revealed. "That was the secret." Because of that natural sweetness, there was no need to add sugar or other high carb sweeteners to Think Thin sauces.

Think Thin Low Carb Pasta Sauces feature the finest, freshest ingredients including whole tomatoes, 100% virgin olive oil olive oil, pale yellow to greenish oil obtained from the pulp of olives by separating the liquids from solids. Olive oil was used in the ancient world for lighting, in the preparation of food, and as an anointing oil for both ritual and cosmetic purposes. , fresh onions, fresh garlic and fresh basil. And unlike some of the most popular pasta sauces on the market today, Think Thin Pasta Sauces don't use tomato puree tomato puree npuré m de tomate  or paste. They come in four different flavor varieties including mellow Romano Cheese Romano cheese is a type of cheese that is known for being very hard, salty and sharp. It is usually grated. It is different from normal cheeses because it requires more milk per pound, most water being lost in the process.

There are different types of romano cheese.

Low carb dieters who want to add extra flavor to their diets will find that these sauces are perfect over chicken for a quick Chicken Parmesan, with beef for Steak Pizzaiola or as an Italian accent over fish or shellfish.

Prime Health has plans to introduce Think Thin Low Carb Pasta in the near future. But only if it meets the Italian standards Lizanne grew up with. "Otherwise," she says, "I'll hear it from my mom!"
