To Pho or Not To Pho....

Alright, I had some Pho w/ the shrimp and veggies only, but can we eat the noodles?

The noodles, didn't look like pasta noodles, so I was just curious.

They rice noodles which are worse than pasta noodles. They are lighter and you can eat more.

If you eat carbs and don't care go for it. They are about 44 carbs per serving, with almost no fiber less than 2 grams.

Idk honestly the way I look at it...if you have self control and don't indulge in these foods all the time, then it's OK to enjoy yourself and eat pho if you want to PHO SHO lol I'd be super unhappy if I couldn't eat things that I wanted to once in a while.

I have pho about once a week. Just up to you on how your body handles it!

Pho if I know.


LOL.

Wow, I'd think the rice noodles would be better than pasta, well I tell ya, I'm still learning new things. To be honest, I don't miss the noodles, I just make sure I get extra shrimp, sprouts, and veggies. So dang, good!

Rice noodles are worse because...

  • they are lighter, you can eat more
  • They have slightly less fiber, fiber subtracts from the carb count
  • They have basically no protein. 1 gram vs 7 in wheat noodles

Wheat spaghetti noodles are better than rice noodles nutrition wise.

So I get take out pho. They keep everything separate. I throw away the rice noodles and substitute my prepared shiritaki noodles. I like the angel hair best, since they have a more rice noodle-like texture. I get mine from Vitacost. Google how to prepare the shiritaki noodles. :) It's important. They are 100% soluble fiber from konjac root. I love both the thin (angel hair) and the "rice" shapes the best!

I got the seafood pho w, no noodles. It was so delicious, but I was only able to eat a small amount, obviously. So, delicious!

Oh man!
1.) I love all these Pho puns!
2.) Pho is delicious and now I want all the pho
3.) Shirataki noodles are uhmazing and that's a fantastic idea to substitute them in this dish! They're the perfect consistency!
