Skinny Minestone Soup
If you're new to shirataki noodles or shirataki rice, soups are one of the easiest ways to serve them. Just drain, rinse well, toss into the soup in place of pasta or rice with the rest of the ingredients, and simmer. You can even use shirataki noodles and rice in a slow cooker; just add during the last 20-30 minutes of cook time. Due to their high fiber content, shirataki noodles and rice never get mushy like regular pasta or rice.
