"skinny" summer fettuccine

August 11, 2013

Yes you heard me, I am making a "skinny" low carb summer fettuccine dish. I am using my fave Shirataki noodles...I love them, they only have 20 calories per serving, and only 3 carbs! They are made with tofu, but are delicious, I fooled people at dinner thinking they were real pasta... and ya know what they couldn't tell the difference! What a great healthy way to make Italian sunday dinner enjoy! ?
