Tomatoes, Mushrooms, Noodles - Oh My! Ok, so who doesn't love pasta? I know I do but I try to avoid it because it's so carb heavy (even the whole wheat pasta is carb heavy)..... Well I LOVE http://www.house-foods.com/tofu/tofu_shirataki.aspx these tofu noodles. They are low carb - and low sodium. They are quite tasty too. Like Tofu, they don't taste like anything really but they take on the flavor of whatever you put with it. Today I threw together some stuff that came out so good I had to share it with you!! I paired this with a spinach salad for lunch and it's fantastic!
1 package Tofu Noodles
2 Campari tomatoes - roughly chopped
1tbsp chopped onion
2 chopped mushrooms (small, button)
1/8cup shredded part skim mozzarella
garlic powder
emeril's original essence
Drain & Rinse noodles in a colander. Heat frying pan over med-high heat. Spray with non-stick cooking spray. Saute tomatoes, mushrooms, & onion. Sprinkle with spices, Saute veggies until tender - tomatoes will form a 'sauce'. Add noodles - saute for a few minutes. When done, sprinkle with mozzarella. Enjoy!!

I love shirataki noodles!!!
ReplyDeleteI found them at my local Giant in a bag - and they are under the brand name "No-oodles" - they are delicious tossed lightly with Trader Joe's soyaki and my turkey meatballs. I wrote about them a few weeks ago on my blog. The ones I eat are made of yam flour.
Thumbs up to No-oodles / shirataki noodles!
