My Shirataki noodles from konjacfoods.com came in a few days ago! I have been eating them every day since I received them. They have really helped me put a dent into the last 15 pounds I need to lose. Using the noodles allows me to have meals all below 170 calories many below 70 calories. I just substitute the Shirataki noodles for pasta in any recipe I make. The following are 2 great recipes I have used with Shirataki noodles since I received them. They are delicious!
