Pasta Question
Ok ok...I know we're "back to basics" and I for one generally try to stay away from carbs - but I want to make pasta some time next week.
I know there a BUNCH of varieties of low carb and high protein varities out there. I also know at Liz's I've heard Susan say one brand is really really crappy and the other brand is pretty good.
Do I remember which one? Of course not!! Did I write it down?? Don't be ridiculous!!
So...what kind of pasta do you eat....

Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses. 
The only one my pouch will let me consume in small quantity is "Dreamfields" comes in a black box, expensive but worth it. I tried the Barilla high protein that did not sit in my pouch very long. I can also tolerate, also in small quantity, spinach fettuchinni which I make with a light sour cream, one small egg yolk mixed in, lots of good locatelli cheese (my version of alfredo) sauce.
Susan is the one who told me about Dreamfields, so I believe that is the one she said is really good.

My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . . It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . . Laureen

Yes - I have seen Dreamfields in the supermarket before....and if Susan told you about it I guess that is probably the one. I'm not looking to have a whole bowl of it, of course, but a little bit would be nice.
Thanks for the response, Laureen.

Hey Laureen,
I like the alfredo idea with the light sour cream...I had never thought of that. My mom suggested I use the condensed milk in a can instead of cream for alfredo. I have not made alfredo sauce since my surgery, so I will give yours a try.

Trish

Seek always to do some good, somewhere. Every man has to seek in his own way to realize his true worth. You must give some time to your fellow man. For remember, you don't live in a world all your own. Your brothers are here too.

Good luck with your pasta menu.

Depending on how much you pasta you cook. . .
Recipe is for box of Noodles (adjust as necessary), but you can reheat leftovers in microwave. . .
2/3 c of light sour cream
1 egg yolk
whisk yolk into sc and mix into cooked noodles, sprinkle with good grated cheese, some pepper to taste. I also use same mixture sometimes w/frozen french style string beans.

Pam - Susan likes the dreamfields - as do I. It doesn't upset my sensitive pouchie at all! I can only eat about 1/2 cup and do maybe once a month. I have also had brown rice pasta and that sits fine too - not sure where that came from, my mom got it for me - I would guess Shop Rite.
Hope this helps!!
my favorite pasta is broccoli sauteed with lots of garlic in olive oil over fettuccini topped with ricotta - yummy!
