Vietnamese shiritaki Noodle Salad
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped

1 tablespoon splenda
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
3 tablespoons fish sauce

2 8 oz packages of shiritaki noodles
1 carrot, julienned
1 cucumber, halved, peeled, seeded and sliced into thin halfrounds
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
1/2 cup finely shredded napa cabbage
1/4 cup chopped dry roasted nuts
Boil shiritaki noodles for 2-3 minutes. Rinse Shiritaki noodles well 4-5 minutes under cool running water. Cut into 3-4 inch lengths pat dry with a paper towel and let stand for 15 minutes. Place the garlic, cilantro, jalapeno, splenda, lime juice, fish sauce and salt in the bowl of a food processor and process until almost smooth. In a large bowl, combine the sauce, noodles, carrots, cucumber, mint and napa cabbage. Toss well and garnish with peanuts.
I'll put up the food counts later, but the ENTIRE recipe is less than 120 calories and 12 carbs
I'll try and make up a batch and add a pic to this post later..
