Hey Guys Found A Great Pasta Substitute

[JanellesMommy8210 8]

Hey guys. I am 4 weeks post op and have been losing around 2-3 pounds a week. So I am down a total 17 pounds so far. I am finally eating regular foods now and found a great Pasta substitute. Its called Tofu shiritaki noodles. It is completely guilt free. It costs around 1.99 per pack and you get 2 servings out of each pack. It was great last night with light Pasta Sauce and fat free ricotta cheese. Tastes just like spagetti for my pasta lovers! Just thought I would share....

This sounds amazing...where did you find it? My little guy might be more willing to eat this than the spaghetti squash that my husband and I like. Thanks so much for sharing.

I found it at an asian market....but you may need to look for it under other names....miracle noodle, yam noodles.--just make sure it is 0 carbs and 0calories. It was very hard for me to find in my area...only 1 store out of about 7 I tried had it. They are pretty good....they smell a little fishy when you open them....but once you rinse them off its not too bad. They hold up to light sauces, but they would get lost in a heavy spaghetti sauce. But definately worth a shot.

I hear about them all the time and I can never find them! I bet they might have them at Whole Foods or Fairway or something.

I have also recently discovered a new tofu product -Egg tofu- in 4 oz tubes. You cut the tube accross and squeeze perfect rounds of very tender tofu, tastes more like very light egg. I fry ( very little oil,like spray) them with little garlic and ginger.

They slide down with no problem. But isn't tofu kind of fatty ? And what kind of fat does it have ?

Pasta was not out until my last adjustment. However whole wheat noodles are on a list that was given to me as a food I can eat. Remember, everyone is different and same with foods that are tolerated or not. It's a hit and miss some days. Chew chew chew and bites no larger than your pinkie!!!
