Pasta was prepared from whole wheat flour, linseed flour and spinach powder (WWF:LF:SP). Linseed flour was incorporated at three percent level viz., 10,15 and 20 per cent. Spinach powder content was constant i.e. at 5 per cent sensory evaluation of pasta prepared was done using nine point hedonic scale. Nutritional evaluation of pasta included estimation ofmoisture, crude protein, crude fibre crude fat, carbohydrate, fat, iron, calcium of pasta in the range of 10.83 per cent, 11.84 per cent, 6.80, 4.80, 63.53 per cent, 2.20, 10.76 mg, 135mg by AOAC (1995) and Ranganna (2003). The result of study was revealed that 6.20 mean score of the 20 per cent linseed flour pasta.
