Pasta Zero

Tonight, I tried something new for dinner. I am a pasta lover, but unfortunately on low carb you can't really have pasta. Awhile back, I noticed my cousin had some noodles in her fridge called Pasta Zero. Well, while I was at Walmart the other night picking up some brussel sprouts, I came across Pasta Zero. I checked out the information and saw that there is only 1 net carb per 2/3 cup serving. I decided I would give it a try. 

The directions on the bag say to drain and rinse and that it might have an earthy smell when you first open the bag. It definitely has an earthy smell. Once I drained and rinsed though, the smell went away. They are super easy to cook. I threw mine in my Pampered Chef steamer and microwaved them for 3 minutes. I paired them with spaghetti sauce and ground beef. With a side of broccoli, I had a nice dinner.

I would compare the noodles to spaghetti squash. The taste is not as bold as spaghetti squash though. They took on the flavor of the sauce. Definitely going to buy these noodles again.

Also, if anyone knows of a low carb pasta sauce, please share. I haven't found one yet. Mine has 10 net carbs which is way too much for my liking. Thanks!
