And my dinner tonight was black bean spaghetti noodles (cooked just like regular noodles, in boiling water) with marinera sauce, chicken, and “parmesan cheese” (really nutritional yeast, but it could be real parmesan cheese if not allergic to dairy). Total carbs for that meal was about 15 grams, or five grams if subtracting fibre.
I actually find this way of eating way more filling and satisfying than the “original” high-carb versions of these foods. And it’s zero stress as far as figuring out blood sugar or boluses go.
