Besides the best thing ever, they are Protein and veggie based noodles. The whole package is 12oz give or take and if you ate the whole thing it's only 50 cals and 2 grams of protein. The brand I use is Pasta slim. I get the spinach kind and make a Greek yogurt& laughing cow wedge "sauce" and it's delish! It's gluten free and I think that's the trick.
