A few weeks ago my wife said she wanted some pasta, we have been working on lowering our carbs on a daily basis so I looked this as a challenge.
If you look out there, you have a few options, most people will make noodles out of Zucchinis or even cook Spaghetti squash, we love those, but some times you just want a nice fresh pasta.
Looking online I quickly realized that most recipes would use a mix between Almond Flour and Coconut Flour. I tried making one of these recipes and it was rather ... unpleasant, the aftermath was a gooey, super white, un appealing noodle, that tasted sweet (because of the coconut).
So I was on a mission deciding to come up with my own mix/recipe and trying to keep the carbs (Net carbs) as low as possible, hopefully 1/3 of what traditional pasta would have.
Below you find my recipe, this is by far the best mix I have to date, serving size is good, so if you are on a low carb diet or want to cycle your carbs, this is a great alternative. The result is 16 grams of NET carbs. You can just drizzle a little olive oil or a low carb marinara sauce and enjoy.
