Pasta Restored!
On the advice of my friend Tammy Coxen, I tracked down CarbaNada noodles--low-carb flat noodles. I discovered Meijer sells them, and while they're about three times more expensive than regular pasta, it's way easier to buy them than undergo the complicated process of making my own low-carb pasta. Best of all, they have the same taste and texture of regular flat noodles.
I made a couple of pasta dishes with CarbaNada noodles, and not only did they taste the same, they didn't spike Darwin's sugar. Total win! Darwin can eat pasta again! One of Darwin's favorite recipes is Sweetie's Macaroni and Cheese (https://www.justapinch.com/…/p…/sweetie-pies-mac-cheese.html), but it's on his strictly forbidden list. I made it with the Carba-Nada noodles. He tried it and we watched his sugar levels carefully afterward. Not a peep. Darwin was overjoyed! This is why he has declared Tammy a food goddess.
