so what's a girl to do at 3am when she's hungry? why, invent a new and amazing snack!
i decided i wanted shirataki. you know, the uber low-cal soy noodles (love love love them). i wanted them in broth. i hunted high and low for something broth-like, but to no avail.
then i decided i would make them with some cheese and sauce! yummy, right? so i open the pantry only to find huge bottles of tomato marinada. nope, not interested in opening those. then my eyes fell upon ... the baby food jars! specifically, earth's best tomato and carrot blend! (for those of you creeped out by the idea of eating baby food, get over yourself. it's just pureed food). so i used those as "sauce."
i heated up 2 baby food jars in a saucepan and added 1 baby food jar of water. added sliced mushrooms and the package of shirataki noodles. when everything was hot, i added 2 tbsp of j & j cream cheese, and mixed it in until it became creamy. i spiced it up with salt, italian blend, garlic and onion powders.
voila! yummy, low-cal, high protein "fettucine alfredo!" (did i mention tasty? lol)
