What kind of noodles can I use for these Easy Lightened Up Hibachi Noodles?

Hibachi noodles are traditionally made with yakisoba noodles. This is a long, flat noodle made of wheat flour. I like to use smart balance spaghetti noodles for these, since I keep them on hand. You could use any rice, whole grain, or gluten free noodles you love.

I like to use Barilla Plus spaghetti or whole grain spaghetti, if you have whole grain pasta as a zero point food. You can use gluten-free spaghetti, for a gluten-free option or substitute the spaghetti noodles for one of these:

• Yakisoba noodles– Simply Asia Chinese Style Lo Mein Noodles. You can find these HERE on Amazon.
• Natural Heaven Hearts of Palm Pasta Spaghetti Noodles-These are low carb noodles made with Hearts of Palm and have only 70 calories per serving. You can find it HERE on Amazon.
• Ronzoni Smarttaste Spaghetti– this brand is lower in points and is packed with fiber. You can find it HERE on Amazon.
