Dreamfields "low Carb" Pasta

Hello! I have gone to numerous grocery stores and I keep seeing Dreamfields Healthy Carb Living pasta. While a 2oz serving has 41 carbs, they said that there are only 5 carbs because those are the only digestible carbs (the other carbs are fiber or protected carbs, whatever thise are). I am a pasta LOVER, but I'm also a skeptic. 5 carbs in a bowl of pasta?? Has anyone spoken to their NUT or doctor about this or tried the pasta themselves?

    My family has this about once a week, or every other week. My NUT approved it, and actually suggested it. And the cool thing, it actually tastes like ...... PASTA!!!! Not wet cardboard like the other

If you like pasta, check out www.Emilybites.com she has a pizza baked spaghetti recipe, a 4 cheese and sausage stuffed shell pasta recipe, and the lasagna cupcakes are great for lunches!

These are all staples at my house! I use the dream fields for the pizza spaghetti and hunts 4 cheese sauce.

I love it. It taste like regular pasta. Another thing it doesn't run my blood sugar up. Regular pasta runs my blood sugar sky high. Dreamfield pasta don't.

I've used these (pics) Shirataki Noodles, they are endorsed by Hungry Girl and have angel hair, spaghetti, macaroni, fetuccini, etc. my fave is the angel hair pasta it is tofu, so really it will take on the flavor of any sauce you put it in. Okay, it smells a little funky when you open the package, but I normally throw the pasta in a colander to remove the liquid and rinse it with some hot water before putting it in the sauce and heating. I'm still pre-op but my old NUT told me these were good as a filler (she still wanted me to get SOME carbs at least) she approved though... This one says 20 calories (5 fat cals.) and 3 g carbs per serving (2 servings per package)
