The FastDay Forum

I'm posting this on here because I don't know how to post new topics on the other forums! (?). So thats my first question, my other questions are has anyone tried the shiritaki(???????) noodles, and miso soup? x

Yes to shiritaki noodles, they're expensive for what they are but they really do help to bulk up a meal. They're becoming a fast day favourite for me. I have them in stir fry, with chilli, or as a pasta substitute.

Hi biscuitslayer, to answer your first question, why would they make it easy?

You need to click on 'Home' which shows a list of all the forums (or boards I forget the nomenclature), then click on the one you want, then on the next page just under the forum/board name you will see a button to start a new post...

Oh and I have had miso soup on its own on a fast day. It's fine, quite salty and sea-ish which is just what miso soup tastes like. Might be even nicer with those low-cal noodles, but I haven't tried them.

If you are ever in Schiphol Airport (Amsterdam) I recommend the Japanese noodle bar there! (sorry off topic I know)

Yes I've tried the slim noodles (got them from Holland and Barrett). They're....OK. I'm not rushing to have them again, but they are good for bulking out a stirfry, and are quite tasty in a Tom Yum soup.

Miso soup - I love this for lunch on a fast day. There's a wide range of sachets available, with calorie contents from 15-50 each. I find them in the Japenese foods section of Tesco, or else in health food shops.
