Green and Crunchy Shirataki Rice Salad
If you’re following a low-carb or keto diet, shirataki products are your best friends. Since they’re so low in calories and carbs, these wonder products are often used in main dishes that are served warm—as a replacement for traditional pasta, for example—as well as in warm side dishes. But shirataki products also suit cold salads perfectly, as you’ll see in this recipe for my Green and Crunchy Shirataki Rice Salad.
This recipe is also a very good example of how veggies can be extremely low in carbs. You can eat a lot of them, but you won’t consume a significant amount of calories or carbs in the process! Even better, green veggies are full of nutrients that do great things for your body and your mind.
Serve this crunchy, delicious salad as a side for chicken, meat or fish. And don’t forget to drizzle it with plenty of olive oil- and vinegar-based dressing, or healthy homemade mayo!
