Finally had pasta!
Tonight was the first night I had pasta since starting my diet in November. It was amazing! I chose a low carb pasta and made my own sauce and low carb meatballls. I had my doubts about the pasta since I have had some miserable experiences with low carb items in the past. I had been eating whole wheat pastas, which are okay, but recent reading convinced me that even whole wheat provides too many carbs.
I was skeptical about Dreamfields, so I bought one box at my local market. I made macaroni and cheese with it and I couldn’t tell the difference between it and regular pasta, even plain.
I love the fact that it has low net carbs. I try to keep my simple carbs low because there is type II diabetes in my family and I’d just as soon avoid that. There certainly isn’t anything wrong with avoiding simple carbs whenever possible.
A caveat: Do NOT overeat this pasta or you will regret it. I heard an interview with the president of Dreamfields & he said that the serving size is THE serving size and overeating the pasta can lead to nasty gastro effects and my hubby can tell you that’s true 
. They also emphasize that the pasta should not be overcooked. Be sure to always cook al dente. It’s definitely nice to be able to include pasta in my repetoire of recipes again!
