CHEW THE RIGHT THING



BITE IT!

HG's Crazy-Good Cold Sesame Noodles



Sesame Treat!

Cold sesame noodles with HALF the fat and a FRACTION of the calories

compared to the average order? Give us forks ASAP -- and let the noodle-

swirling begin!



Ingredients:

1 package House Foods Tofu Shirataki, Spaghetti Shape

1 tbsp. plus 1 tsp. reduced-fat peanut butter, room temperature

2 tbsp. light soymilk

2 tbsp. chopped scallions

1/2 tbsp. light or low-sodium soy sauce

1/2 tsp. sesame seeds

1/8 tsp. minced garlic

1 no-calorie sweetener packet (like Splenda)

Optional: salt



Directions:

Rinse and drain noodles well. Pat VERY dry with paper towels. Place noodles

in a microwave-safe bowl, and microwave for 1 minute. Drain excess liquid

from noodles, and pat them again until thoroughly dry (the more dry the

better!). Cut noodles into spaghetti-length pieces. Set aside. In a separate

small dish, combine peanut butter, soymilk, soy sauce, sesame seeds, garlic

and sweetener. Mix well. Feel free to season this sauce to taste with salt.

Pour sauce over noodles. Mix thoroughly. Top with chopped scallions and mix

again. Allow to chill in the fridge. Then enjoy! MAKES 1 SERVING

FIGHT IT!

Cold Sesame Noodles, Average



Sesame Shmesame!

Oh, please. Don't tell us you're surprised to see crazy-high nutritionals

associated with cold sesame noodles. Pasta plus peanut butter plus sesame

oil (and seeds!) pretty much says it all. But they do taste really goooood.

Rumor has it, this dish was created by a peanut farmer who accidentally

spilled soy sauce on his spaghetti. In a desperate attempt to mask the

saltiness of his family's dinner, he quickly stirred in spoonfuls of peanut

butter. Turns out they loved it. OK, that was completely made up (and really

dumb -- but there's little-to-no info available about the history of these

irresistible things!). Distracting you with silly, made-up stories isn't what

we're here to do. We're here to deliver a fantabulous recipe for SLAMMIN'

cold sesame noodles with a tiny fraction of the calories of the regular

version. That's it. So, we'll stop yapping now and let you head to the kitchen

to whip up a batch of our Crazy-Good Cold Sesame Noodles. Remember to

report back to us and tell us what you think. We'll be waiting...
