Shirataki noodles are the new, low calorie way to enjoy pasta dishes. Here are healthy recipes using shirataki noodles that you’ll love!
If you don’t know by now, I am a carb lover!!
If I wasn’t paying attention, I could probably eat a whole loaf of bread by myself. So, you can imagine how excited I was I discovered shirataki noodles.
Shirataki noodles are mostly made up of water and konjac flour, making them extremely low in calories. If you’re someone who needs to eat a large volume of food in order to feel full, this is a great food for that. It allows you to consume large amounts of pasta but for a fraction of the calories that are in normal noodles!
