Dr Jockers Comments:
This is a great low-carb version of spaghetti noodles. I like to load it up with coconut oil and pastured butter as it greatly enhances the flavor and texture and improves the nutritional content of the noodles.
Traditional pasta noodles are high in carbohydrates and cause blood sugar imbalances. These noodles will not do that, in fact, they will enhance your bodies ability to burn fat and improve brain function. Try them out and I think your family will love them!
