Yes, you can eat noodles and get lean... mmmmmm
There are lots of fun foods that I (Juliane) find and incorporate into my diet as replacements for foods that I don't eat because they don't fit my goals. For example; pasta is so processed and full of gluten and an excess of calories that I just feel gross after I eat it. That's where Miracle Noodles come in! These gems are basically just fiber and absorb the taste of whatever you cook them in. There are zero carbs and calories per serving. They come in angel hair, rice and fettucine form. You can get them online and at a few heath food stores. The cons are that they are a bit pricey but you can buy them in bulk which cuts down on the price. Also, they have a weird odor when you first open them up, so make sure to rinse them really well! I use them sparingly if I want to make a fun Asian or Italian dish without all the calories and processed carbs. Today I cooked them with my special "fat burning" topping and fried them in a frying pan. This is so simple and easy.
-cut open the pack and rinse well for a few minutes in cold water.
-grease a pan with grass fed butter (healthy fat, you need fat to burn fat)
-put the burner on med/high heat and put the noodles in
-pour on the mustard (natural metabolism booster)
-shake in some ground mustard, ginger (aids in digestion), and "nosalt" and any other seasonings you may enjoy
-let noodles cook for a few minutes and continually mix them around the pan.
-add a little more grass fed butter on top to melt in
-put the noodles in a covered dish in the refrigerator for at least a few hours
-when you are ready to eat them, heat them up in the microwave for about 2 minutes. I find letting them sit in the seasoning, and then reheating them really helps to absorb the flavor!
Some people love them, others hate them, but they worth a try! There is also a version made of soy that I have found in many grocery stores which have some calories, carbs and protein per serving.
