Expert Tips

"Bell peppers, regardless of their color, provide vitamin C also called ascorbic acid. Choosing vitamin C-rich foods keeps gums and blood vessels healthy."

Shirataki noodles, prepared from Japanese yam flour, are wheat- and gluten-free. They can be purchased in Asian food stores, on the Web, or in some supermarkets.

I thought this was just okay, the noodles were very good and it was filling, but not a ton of flavor. I would suggest using less beans because they were pretty overwhelming.
