Hmm 🤔 I’m not too sure if there is a low carb pasta on the market. Pasta being a carb just Bread is actually a good thing.
Because as I’m certain you appreciate we need carbs as part of a balanced diet.

Maybe a good alternative would be for you to continue enjoying you favourite pasta dishes. Only in smaller portions and less often than you would have had previously had before.

@Kaetana thankyou for your help/advice.

My book on food for Type 2 tells me that pasta that has been cooked, cooled and reheated loses a lot of the bad stuff. I'm not a dietician or medic so please don't act on this, but you might want to find a reliable source for this yourself. I like pasta too, so eat it after it has been re-heated.

I think waitrose do one that is low carb and high protein. Failing that, try Holland and Barrett.

Amazon sells a low carb spaghetti called CarbeDiem. 16 grams of carbs per serving vs almost 40 grams of carbs for regular spaghetti. It is NOT gluten free.
