For the pasta lovers...

Shiritaki noodles are great for flavor and texture if craving pasta.

They are zero calories and if used with low carb pasta sauce can be a great alternative.

Check them out at your local Whole Foods, etc.

Message me if you have questions!

Goodluck

    I had to read your comment twice and yes if your going very low carb they are a substitute, not for taste though. If someone was actually a pasta lover these just don't work at all.

    is this the same as the fresh rice type noodles my local trader joes sells? don't have access to whole foods.

    tip: instead of low carb pasta sauce my italian husband makes a marinara (meatless) with red beans in it. crushed and whole tomatoes, garlic, onions, fresh basil and red beans. i think that's everything he puts in it. when he does make a meat sauce it's with ground pork not hamburger.
