    This was really good. I subbed spinach for the cauliflower and added a touch of garlic. YUM - 9/16/08

    I love the counted out strands. I find pasta multiplies when broken, and cooked, and with more veggies, less carbs is good!!!
    Thanks for sharing a great recipe.

    This sounds really good and I'm going to give it a try although 10 strands of pasta does seem a bit miserly. I'll add some more, but wholewheat. - 9/16/08

    I haven't tried this, but I'm a little sceptical about the "can be prepared in 5 minutes" part. Maybe if you already happen to have cooked pasta, cooked & chopped chicken, and all those chopped vegetables on hand - but I never do! - 9/16/08

    this looks like a great recipe. I can't wait to try it. Calories are low enough too. - 9/16/08

    Your calorie count is off because you don't include the oil from the tomatoes. The count should be at least 120 calories higher than it actually is. =( - 9/16/08

    This looks good but how about a bit of seasoning. Maybe some basil and garlic? And maybe substitute rice noodles. - 9/16/08

    Ladyfidget, about the low carb diet, Atkins has you starting off on less than 20 carbs a day, but you not only count your carbs you avoid certain TYPES of carbs all together. This means you can't spend your 20 carbs on pasta. No pasta is allowed, or fruit. But south beach diet is a little different. - 9/16/08

    Very good! I did increase the pasta to one ounce. Included it in my tracker and it was still within my calories - 10/28/07

    I'm going to try this with a little tomato sauce and just a dab of olive oil. Should be quite filling with a mixed greens salad! - 10/28/07

    I'd like to try this but the cholesterol and carbs are very high and I already suffer from high cholesterol. From previously being on a low carb diet, I was told that you should stay under 30 gr of carbs a day in order to lose weight.Is this a myth? I also thought the 10 strands of angel hair weird. - 10/28/07

    I assume the extremely silly 10 strands of pasta is a mistake. Nice & simple, but I will use considerably more strands of whole grain pasta. - 10/27/07

    Very Easy and delicious. I modified it a bit with mushrooms instead of cauliflower. It is nice to see easy recipes for one serving! - 3/27/07
