Today’s culinary creation is tofu shirataki noodles!
Ingredients: shirataki noodles, meatballs, hot dog slices, Filipino spaghetti sauce
On a recent trip to a local Asian market, I was introduced to tofu shirataki noodles. They are a traditional Japanese noodles that are made of tofu and yam. After a bit of research, I found out shirataki noodles have several benefits! They are cholesterol free, gluten free, sugar free, dairy free, vegan and high in fiber! They can even help in weight loss. I found these noodles intriguing and interesting and decided to try it out. There were two versions of tofu shirataki noodles that I bought. I got the spaghetti and fettuccine.
The tofu shirataki noodles already come cooked and so all I had to do was add a little boiling water and then mix in the ingredients that I wanted.
For the spaghetti, I added beef meatballs and sweet Filipino spaghetti sauce.
For the fettuccine, I mixed in hot dog slices and sweet Filipino spaghetti sauce.
I really liked how these noodles came out when cooked. They were so soft and tender. They tasted great too! I could not tell at all that I was eating something that was low in fat and low in calories! I couldn’t even tell that they are low in carbs! It’s as delicious as regular pasta. I am a fan! It’s healthy and yummy! Yay! I really liked the tofu shirataki noodles and can see myself using these noodles for other homemade creations!
I bought tofu shirataki fettuccine before–it was definitely interesting to eat! It’s so great how healthy these noodles are 😀
