My husband and I were each diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes three years ago, and leaving pasta in our rear view mirrors was hard. I will admit that we slipped a few times, and treated ourselves, but for the most part we tried to be diligent about avoiding pasta.
I bought the two-pack of Carba-nada, which includes egg fettucine and garlic fettucine, and we broke out the egg noodles to add to some chili that I made. Holy cow, these noodles taste GREAT! Seriously, they taste like the real deal, and at only 17 net grams of carbs per serving, we didn’t even have to feel guilty.
I was a little dubious at first, because in their uncooked state, they seemed kind of brittle. And, I did have to cook them a little longer than the three minutes…they were a little TOO al dente at that point. But, about 4 ½ to 5 minutes did the trick.
The only negative with these noodles is the price. But, I am going to spring for the 6-pack, which is a really good deal at only $23.58. Also, I haven’t tried the garlic noodles yet, but I see some Alfredo in our near future!
