    Where do you find shiritaki noodles? I can't find them in any of my local grocery stores and even at the military commissary all I found were shiritaki noodles in water, called a paste rather than noodles. I looked on line and because I don't want to buy a whole case, the cost them for shipping is more than the cost of the noodles. Any ideas? I'd really like to try them to replace some of the pasta dishes with lower carb alternatives. Thanks!

    When I am craving mac and cheese I use the following:
    no yolk egge noodles - 2 oz serving
    Ragu cheese sauce - 1/4 c

    When the noodles are dry, it doesn't look like much, but it is a perfect portion really.

    Nutrition value: Per serving
    Calories: 205
    Fat: 9g
    Carbs: 23.5g
    Fiber: 1.5g
    Protein: 4g

    As for potatoes - I mostly eat red potatoes when I do eat them. and I eat them baked

    Bread - My favorite bread is Aunt millies Light Potatoe Bread - 35 calories per slice. And tastes delicious!
