Every 100 kcal of spinach spaghetti brings 3.5 g of protein. On that measure it ranks 42nd of the 111 grains in this database and 572nd of all 796 foods on the site. Measured by weight instead, its 4.58 g per 100 g ranks 84th in its group.
Around 14% of the calories in spinach spaghetti come from protein, so it is more of an energy food than a protein food. It contributes to a day's protein total, but the bulk of what it delivers is energy rather than amino acids - treat it as a contributor alongside a denser source, not as the protein in a meal.
Weight for weight, spinach spaghetti has 7.3 g of protein for each gram of fat (4.58 g against 0.63 g per 100 g).
Set against french bread, another grain entry in the database, a serving carries about 0.5 g less protein (french bread has 6.9 g per 1 medium slice).
It is an incomplete protein on its own; pairing it with other plant foods across the day covers the full range of essential amino acids. The serving quoted here is measured by volume at 140 g, and it covers about 13% of the 50 g FDA Daily Value for protein.

Sample figures for one made-up week against a 110 g goal, not your data. Red bars met the goal. Your own log fills this in with Premium.
How much protein is in 100 g of spinach spaghetti?
4.58 g. The 1 cup cooked serving used on this page weighs 140 g and so carries 6.4 g.
How much protein do you get per 100 calories of spinach spaghetti?
3.5 g. That figure divides its 4.58 g of protein per 100 g by its 130 kcal per 100 g, so it does not depend on serving size.
Is the protein in spinach spaghetti complete?
No. On its own, the protein in spinach spaghetti is short of at least one essential amino acid; other protein sources across the day fill the gap.
What share of the protein Daily Value is one serving of spinach spaghetti?
About 13%. One 1 cup cooked serving has 6.4 g, and the FDA Daily Value for protein is 50 g.
