Hey ladies thanks for all of the ideas....we make a low carb pizza like this.....

Take hamburger meat and press it out in a pizza pan really thin and then bake it in the oven at 350 until brown and then cover it with sauce, cheese and any topping you like and put it back in the oven until the cheese melts let stand 5 minutes and cut it into pizza slices. It is pretty good!

Has anyone else tried and enjoyed the shirataki tofu noodles used by the author of the Hungry Girl cookbook? I found her fettucini alfredo style dish really pretty tasty (I can't post links, but you can find the recipe online by googling these two words: hungry girlfredo). I've been mixing in a little spinach/feta chicken sausage or artichoke hearts with mine, though really any veggie or meat to provide a touch of texture would be just as good.

With the shirataki noodles, trust the directions and take them for real--the noodles do have a slightly fishy (to me) smell and require thorough rinsing and patting dry before you use them. They aren't *just* like traditional noodles, but for those days when I just need a noodle fix, I am so glad these exist.

Hungry Girl's cold sesame noodle recipe is also a knock-out, though I find that the shirataki noodles have almost *zero* shelf-life as leftovers, so if I make these, I have to plan to eat them almost as soon as they are chilled. The peanut butter-soy sauce sauce she makes is good, but her version is a little sweet for my taste (she adds a packet of sweetener and uses soy milk, but I go for peanut butter, tamari soy, and maybe a little extra garlic).

Have others found good uses for the shirataki?

Do you cook the meat first? Or put it into the pan raw?

Greetings!

New to the forum and wanted to pass along an excellent website:
But I cannot post the URL yet. Grrrrr.

Google "Elana's Pantry"

Elana has celiac disease (like me) and uses alternatives to wheat in her baking & other recipes. Her recipes are not only gluten-free, but also lower carb, most are dairy free and agave nectar (low GI) sweetened.

Her flax bread is fantastic! The coconut flour muffins are delicious too!

Cheers
