Description

This is a delicious, nourishing meal that uses shirataki noodles to keep it low carb and gluten free. These are made from the konjac plant or konjac yam. They are relatively translucent and without flavor, however they take on the flavor of whatever dish they are used for. You can usually find these in the refrigerated produce section of a grocery store. Sometimes you can find them on the shelf in the Asian foods section. You can also find them on Thrive Market Online.

You can easily dial up the heat in this dish with crushed red pepper and extra sriracha. Or keep it milder if you prefer.
