I was at my favorite supermarket today looking for silken tofu and found gluten free Pasta Slim Fettuccine. It is a shirataki konjac flour noodle that is pretty much instant. The biggest bonus is, that this noodle only has 50 calories per package (2 servings in the 200g package)
I'm so excited to find a GF pasta that isn't packed with empty calories. From a nutrition point of view, that is the hardest part of not eating gluten. Normal wheat flour is fortified giving it extra nutrition. Gluten free products, especially in Canada are not. They also usually have more calories. Finding a gluten free low calorie substitute really excites me.
