Hi, my name is Heather and I'm addicted to Pad Thai. This is one of my "go-to" lunches that help me get my fix. You wouldn't want to see me when I can't get my Pad Thai fix. This is not as good as the real deal but it's close enough to hold me over and it's under 500 calories for a giant bowl.
Step 1: Gather your weapons and gear.
2 packages of shirataki noodles (8oz) (I like to use the fettuccine style ones)
3 tbsp Thai Kitchen's - Original Pad Thai sauce
1/2 cup egg whites
2tbsp PB2 or crushed peanuts.
Ginger, fresh or dried ground
Protein of your choice: For this recipe I used 4oz shredded chicken breast. Whatever you choose to use, pre-cook it.
**optional - green onions
Step 2: Prepare the noodles!
Drain the noodles and rinse them well. Place into a large skillet and cook for about 5 minutes.
Step 3: Put in the yummies!
Add the pad thai sauce, ginger and 1tbsp of the PB2 or peanuts and your pre-cooked protein of choice (also green onions if you are using them). Mix well and continue cooking for another 3-5 minutes.
When it's done put into a bowl.
Step 4: Finishing touches!
Next scramble the egg whites in the skillet that the noodle mixture was in, it should only take a minute or 2. Place the eggs on top of the noodle mixture.
Sprinkle the remaining PB2 or peanuts over the bowl.
Step 5: OM NOM NOM
Begin eating your Pad Thai until it is all gone or your craving is satisfied. Log onto MFP and thank me for giving you this amazing recipe.

I haven't tried the 0 calorie ones, my groceries store only carries the 40 calorie ones. If you rinse them well and cook them good the smell goes away. The taste still isn't as good as real noodles obviously, but of course the calories skyrocket when using real noodles.0
