Here’s a wonderful warming winter dessert I know you’ll love.  And so easy. And the secret is, its made with Asian yam noodles which have no carbs and no calories. Yahoo. If your asian market doesn’t have these noodles shaped like Orzo, you have a couple choices, just use regular noodles and cut them into small pieces, using kitchen shears, or order from www.miraclenoodle.com.  I could not diet with out shirataki noodles. They fill me up. They do no harm. What’s not to love?
