Tuna Noodle Casserole


In the spirit of the Hungry Girl from this morning’s post, I thought tonight’s dish should be something from her website. Here we have Hungry Girl’s Tuna Noodle Casserole. The only change I made was I replaced the peas with corn as it was all I had for a frozen vegetables. For spice, I added 1 tsp of garlic powder and 1/2 tsp of cayenne pepper to give it a little kick. This is another one of those under 30 mins recipes. Only 4 WW points for a quarter of the casserole… Quick and Easy :)

The noodles used in the recipe are Shirataki yam tofu noodles and one bag is 0 WW points…WHAT???? I know crazy talk right? The texture of yam noodles is different from traditional asian flour/egg noodles, but I am a huge fan of them and often use them to replace noodles in many of my other dishes that call for noodles. LOVE IT!


NOTE: These Shirataki yam noodles took forever for me to find anywhere in Edmonton or Alberta or anywhere in Canada for that matter. Seriously ask the hubby, I drove all over Edmonton looking for them. So to save all my foodie followers tons of wasted time looking for them, I will tell you that only T & T Supermarkets sell them. There is one in north Edmonton on 137ave and 97st and the second location is in West Edmonton Mall. It even has Hungry Girl’s photo on the package.

Who Is The Hungry Girl?

Amanda’s Foodie Website of Choice

Aren’t we all just HUNGRY GIRLS!!!

I had to think long and hard before posting my first tips and tricks for you. I know how hard the struggle can be to eat on a point system and feel like you’re starving all the time. Here’s a website I wanted to share with all my foodie followers – Hungry Girl.

Like many of us, this women is all about finding the biggest bang for her buck when it comes to eating and calorie consumption.  Every week she posts a new recipe on low calorie meals, snacks, drinks, etc.

Before I bought her books, I tested a few of the recipes on her site and I loved all the ones that I tried. My absolute favorite book of hers is Hungry Girl 300 Under 300. It’s one of her newer books and it has tons of recipes.

Please take the time to look through her site and see what recipes she has up there for you. A lot of my eating habits changed after I went through her site.
