I've discovered Miracle Noodles that allow me to make healthier Pasta Dishes. It's a Plant Based Company called Miracle Noodles. Of course if you aren't Vegetarian or Vegan you can continue to use Regular Pasta Choices. This Plant Based Pasta is also Diabetic Friendly, I've had Diabetes for almost two years so my recipes are beginning to reflect that.
