We all have “comfort foods” that feel like more than just food. I know tuna noodle casserole is on a lot of our weight loss patients’ list of such dishes so I put together this alternative to the traditional version using fat free, sugar free and starch free noodles available from our online store or in our office. Our healthy recipes provide great alternatives to your favorite foods!

- 2 packages of Shirataki noodles (I used the flat noodles)
- 2 wedges Laughing Cow Lite Cheese – original Swiss
- 1 7 oz can solid white tuna packed in water, drained
- 1 tbsp chicken stock
- 1 tbsp mayonnaise – made with extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 cup shelled edamame (I used frozen)
