Is there a healthy alternative for pasta? My husband and daughter are going through this journey with me and I really didn't want to deprive them too much

Zoodles - noodles made from zucchini. (Although I just make pasta for my family to go with the protein part of the meal.)

Spaghetti Squash -- Yummy.

In place of rice -- "riced" cauliflower - they now sell it frozen.  Makes super "Fried Rice" -- Yum-Yum!!

I haven't found it frozen, but my Whole Foods has "minced" cauliflower that can be used for this.  They only sell it in huge quantities, so I haven't bought any.  It's just me.  If I had a family to feed, it would make sense!

I have made black bean pasta a few times. Its smells gross while cooking, but I enjoyed it with some meat sauce and Parmesan.
