Lower Your Carb Intake – 3 Pasta Substitutes You Should Be Using

August 22, 2014 by Adria Ali Leave a Comment

In general, carbohydrates are miss used and over eaten.   People use them to calm down, relax after a hard day, and to feel full.  However, carbohydrates original purpose was for FUEL!   Running the lands and catching our prey is now a thing of the past, yet we eat more carbohydrates then was ever intended.   Not only that, we have succumb to advertising, processing, and conditioning that tells us to eat carbs that are not natural.   Lowering your carbohydrates and changing where they come from can alter  your body for the better FAST!!    Here are 3 pasta substitutes you could be eating to lower  your carb intake and get to your goal faster!!!   fitness tips

Pasta Substitutes – Fill Up Without Filling Out

Spaghetti Squash It’s an oldie but a goodie, this squash is easy to prepare ash stays good in the fridge for ages!   It’s also pretty cheap and you can add it to various dishes and side dishes.   Here’s a previous recipe we posted.

Low Carb Spaghetti – Ground Turkey With Spaghetti Squash

 

Veggie Spaghetti 

You can use any kind of solid vegetable for this but I prefer Zucchini because it’s easy to find, affordable and stages good for long periods of time.  You can also mix and match.  Throw in 3 types of veggies for maximum vitamins!  Then toss in a spagetti sauce or a low fat alfredo and BAM, low carb meal that fills you up without slowing you down! Trainer Tips  – I Use a spiral cutter to get the veggie spaghetti into perfect cuts.   Take a look at our previous article and where you can pick it up today (so you can have this for dinner tonight)!

 

 

 No Carb Kelp Noodles

 

White yam noodle substitute. 0 calories per serving. No gluten. No cholesterol. Vegan. No sugar. No soy – and absolutely no guilt! Perishable. Hungry girl approved. This product has been deemed an excellent guilt-free noodle substitute by Hungry Girl. Use it in soups, stir-frys, and salads. This product is made from yam flour that was not genetically engineered. No preservatives.

Use it with literally ANY recipe because these noodles carry the flavor of whatever you cook them with!!   See this previous article on how to make them   low carb noodles

 

Changing your night time meal to include  1- 3 low carb substitutes can make a dramatic difference in you results.   If you think this is going to be a huge challenge for you or for your family, introduce it slowly and allow your body to slowly adjust.   Eating low carbs during the day and at night also allows you to drop water weight quickly.  Next, you begin to lose excess fat.   Since the water falls away within days, maintaining this kind of eating allows you to look leaner almost immediately.   Remember my trainer tips from previous posts, I recommend between 100 to 150 grams of carbs per day.   150 is when you are very active.   100 is as if you didn’t move much or you are trying to cut up fast.  Save these  pasta substitutes and print them!   Keep you fitness tips present in your everyday life and you will always stay focused!   Adria Ali
