LOVE Pad Thai!!!! And this looks awesome. AND we can can split in in two for small meals for saving on calories if needed. I'm sure it will be hard to stop eating once I start, though! lol

I've been making Pad Thai with 20 calorie Vietnamese noodles (tapioca sticks; the ones I have are called Hu Thiu Dai My Tho). The noodles are made of tapioca flour only; there are similar noodles made of tapioca and rice flour that are 10X the calories, so label reading is crucial!

To prep the noodles, I put them in a bowl and cover them with boiling water, then cover the bowl with a plate or lid. The noodles soften up in about 15 minutes, and I then drain and rinse them with cold water.

I much prefer the texture and flavor of the tapioca noodles to shirataki. Any of you who have access to an Asian market with a good selection of Vietnamese foods should check them out! They're dried noodles, so you'll find them near the rice noodles and bean threads.

Thanks -- I'll look for them!
