What do macaroni and cheese, ramen and pasta marinara all have in common? Well, yes, they all include a noodle, but more importantly, they’re quintessential comfort foods. Noodles universally represent a cozy hug, and no matter your health goals or diet restrictions, you deserve the oversized sweater that is noodles.
The Miracle Noodle brand makes shirataki noodles that are silky and satisfyingly filling. Better yet, they’re grain free, low carb and (extremely) low calorie. There’s no sketchy food science here. The noodles are made with one main ingredient – the Japanese konjac plant – resulting in a pasta that’s 97% water and 3% fiber. So if you want a noodle-y, Asian-inspired dish that’s rich with umami flavors and is keto friendly, give this shirataki noodles recipe a try. You deserve to slurp up angel hair noodles smothered in sauce!
