    i think i'll stick to spaghetti squash.... 1 cup = about 45 calories

    Sorry if this is sa dumb question but what is spaghetti squash? :wink: Is it pretty much self explanatory?? And what do you do with it? Eat it by itself or make sumthing with it? Thanks

    An amazing squash where the fibers inside are long like spaghetti. You can cut it in half and roast or microwave it, then take a fork and break up the strands. It is tasty with salt and pepper, but you could use it with marinara if you wanted to.

    I've done the same thing by simply shredding a zucchini, yummy

    yup, they're also sold as "Miracle Noodles" or something like that too. They are rubbery, and odd-smelling. There's ONE recipe I found that makes them palatable-- cold/hot sesame noodles. Mind that the almond or peanut butter will add a lot of calories, but you can do this awesomely delicious dish with low carbs.

    Oo, sounds like something my bf would enjoy. Thanks! I'll try it.

    Different yam. These are not sweet potato yams, but mountain yam (burdock root)

    Thanks for the info! That explains it, since most of those clear Asian noodles seem to be root based.
