I just ate the quintessential anti-Atkins meal!

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

Fried tofu with black bean and chili sauce served over udon noodles (with carrot slices) - SPIN IN THY GRAVE, FAT MAN!!!


Yummy - gastrinomic satisfaction has been blissfully achieved!


mmmmm- calorie dense noodles!

[GOPisEvil]

1. Mmmmmmm...Thai food....

Sounds Thai anyway.

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

3. I think udon noodles are a Japanese thing- but I made it in a SE asian way

Sort of my type of fusion

[GOPisEvil]

6. True...udon noodles are Japanese.

Sounds good, though.

9. finished it off with a good squeeze of lime juice and some vietnamese fish

sauce - not too much fish sauce - just enough - perfecto!!!

2. Good for you!

Stick it to those whiney carb-label-readers!

[Amaya]

4. Anti-Atkins people are my people.

:D

8. I find noodles to be the ultimate antidepressant

Strict Atkinsians often have mood disorders - there have been studies.

5. Is it necessary to slam Dr Atkins?

Glad you enjoyed your meal, but he wasn't fat. He gained fluid weight in his last weeks due to steriods.

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

7. I know - I'm only kidding. No offense to the dead

but "spin in thy grave, fat man" had such a great ring to it. Sorry

[BigMcLargehuge]

18. there's no need for chaves to slam Atkins

Atkins slammed himself... into the pavement

19. Why so touchy?

Isn't criticism and faux criticism what this site is all about?

[slor]

10. Wow...sounds good...

can you spell out the recipe? And suggest brands of ingredients used? TIA!

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

12. Well lets see now. You might need an asian grocery store but - here goes

1/2 package of fresh udon noodles.

About 10 1/2 inch thick triangles of tofu, fried golden brown.

3 baby carrots or 1 whole carrot cut into little discs.

i shallot minced

3 thai chilies

1 clove garlic minced

I just tossed everything in my wok at high heat with some peanut oil and stir fried it for a few minutes, put in about 2 tsps of black bean w/ chili paste (I don't know the brand as its in chinese but its made by Master-Sauce corp. This is a common thing though.) A good swig of 3 Crabs brand thai fish sauce and a squeeze of lime. Put some torn cilantro over the top and you're good to add some poundage to the old waste line!

Would be good with more greens - like brocolli or bok choy - but that's all I had on hand.

11. I love Thai food, well actually any type of Asian food

Fried tofu is yummy and versatile, i like mine stir fired in a wok with spicy peanut sauce of rice noodles with scallions with some lime juice.

13. Love IT! I've been on a fruit fast for about

four days and boy does that sound good to this vegan head!

It's so hot here, though, that fruit is really all I want right now ..it's been good for me but tomorrow..I'm going to have a big ol' fresh organic garden salad with avocados, cherry tomatoes, green beans, yellow squash, broccoli...yummm! :P

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

14. Then please omit the fish sauce and use soy sauce instead!

enjoy!

[SarahB]

15. I'm Atkins-ish and I would eat that

Just replace the noodles with veggies. I don't waste my energy anymore debating what works for me that may not work for others, but I'm glad you enjoyed your meal. :D
