“This creamy crab and spinach pasta may be a little dirty keto in that it uses several, store-bought foods, but it delivers on flavour! I added hot sauce for extra kick and simply stirred it through my favourite brand of shirataki / konjac ‘fettucine‘. Do not omit the parsley and lemon zest garnish as the fresh flavours bring the whole dish together.” – Monya
“I have blogged about konjac (shirataki) noodles before – they are the bomb! Made out of the konjac root, companies (over time) have perfected a noodle-looking food that is virtually carb-free, I can fool myself into thinking I am enjoying a good pasta. They are high in fibre, very filling and even look like the real thing. Available in ‘rice’, ‘noodles’, ‘penne’ and ‘fettuccine’ (< my favourite), they are indeed a godsend for those on keto / low-carb diets. You also cannot go wrong with an excellent homemade Basil Pesto. My recipe is unbeatable and I highly encourage you to whip up a batch at home – you will never eat store-bought again. By all means, add a lovely portion of grilled chicken to it, just include it in your macros.” – Monya
