Yes, Miracle noodles will definitely help fill you up. You can have them for lunch or dinner, or even breakfast if you are used to full breakfasts. You can buy them at asian groceries or online. Here's one link.
I just tried them and they come cooked, in liquid in a bag. You rinse them and then heat them for a minute in boiling water. They are white and almost translucent in spots. They absorb the taste of the sauce you're using. makes a nice change. I bought them for $2.39 a pack plus shipping and tax.. still was cheaper than driving to a store that had them as my little town sure doesn't!
You might find them at your local store too, as "Shiritaki noodles". The Miracle Noodle brand can be upwards of $3 for a 2 serving package here, but my local grocery has 0/0/0 shiritaki noodles for $1.70 a package, just a different brand. They are kept near the tofu.
ok.....mamazu....my FIRST EVER pack of the shirataki noodles are now in my fridge...
HELP....WHAT DO I MAKE WITH THEM!! hahaha
Ok -- with YOUR cooking expertise, you'll be whipping up all kinds of TREASURES with those babies! If you need to feel "pasta-y" just use Liz' Red Pepper sauce so it will look like the real deal. I think tho' I'm going to go for a yummy stir fry....mmmm
FYI I just found in the spice section Club HOuse spice PARMESAN & HERBS with 0,0,0. Usually spices say 1g carbs per 1/2 tsp. I think this will be a yummy one to use on the zuchinni chips, or any sauce.... mmmmm....
