Let me introduce you to my new friend, the kelp noodle.
These simple low carb noodles have just three ingredients: salt, water and kelp.
They've got no discernible taste, but have the consistency and mouthfeel of al dente noodles. Each serving has only 2g net carbs, and 6 calories. Yes. I did just say 6 calories.
Today I used kelp noodles to make an Asian cold peanut noodle salad.
It's got all the ingredients you'd expect from an Asian dish: soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and ginger. I also added in a little sugar-free sweetener to balance out the flavors. The result was a very satisfying noodle dish with only 112 calories and 5g net carbs.
Not too shabby, my new friend, not too shabby at all.
If you liked this low carb noodle recipe, then you might like my recipes for Spaghetti and Meatballs, Chicken Alfredo or Pesto Edamame Spaghetti.
