Yummy supper!

So, when I was a kid, my mom always made spaghetti pizza when we had a "pot luck" supper or when she had to feed a bunch of my friends!  Needless to say, my kids love it and I decided I would make it for my kiddos tonight (ALWAYS a favorite around here!)  BUT........I wanted some too!  Since I don't do pasta (just don't like all the carbs and empty calories and fills me up too much!)  I decided I try to modify it to make it more WLS friendly!

After reading on the RNY board about these Shirataki noodles, I finally broke down and bought some thinking I could use them in place of the spaghetti.......I wasn't sure how it would work, but worth a try, right?

ANYWAYS....................the verdict is..............  YUMMYY!!!!!!!!!   AND, pretty WLS friendly!  It's not quite like a "real" spaghetti pizza, but close enough that it satisfied me  (AND, it looked like I was eating the same thing as the family!)  COOL!

Here's the nut info on the 1 serving I  had (I got 9 servings out of the batch I made....needless to say.........I've got some frozen!)

If anyone wants to try it, let me know and I'll see what I can do about some type of recipe!

Hope everyone is having a great Sunday!!!!!

I used low fat mozzarella on mine.........but prolly pretty close!

For the regular spaghetti pizza:
1 pkg spaghetti (cook per box directions, leave it a little firmer than you normally would)
 Once cooked, add about 1/2 c of mozzarella cheese and 2 eggs, beaten.....mix well with spaghetti until coated.
Spice to taste with garlic, onion powder, salt/pepper.
Spread the mixure into a greased (I use Pam) jelly roll pan (baking sheet)
Bake for about 30 minutes at 375ish (the spaghetti will "stick" together to form a crust)

Once the crust is done, remove from oven and top with your favorite toppings.  It usually takes me a large jar of Spaghetti/marinara/pizza sauce, and 3-4 cups of mozzarella cheese (My family loves it cheesy!)  Top with your favorites........pepperoni, veggies, etc.  

Bake again for 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is nice and melted.......Yummy!

Hope you like it!

I'm bookmarking this to try sometime - it has a different twist, sounds yummy.

I love Hungry Girl! I get her emails everyday...   I do finally see we do have the shiritaki noodles at Shaw's as well.  

where do you find shirataki noodles?

Hannaford on Sabattus St has them in the organic section, in the refridgerated case with all the soy milk and stuff....top shelf, upper left

I had a hard time finding them at first too!
