Glass noodles are one of my favorite ways to do a salad. It is unlike the kind of salad other countries do because you use a cold noodle as a salad. You can actually get healthy, low-carb options for your salads too. If you look at the ingredients, you can find noodles made from beans, brown rice, and other, less refined options.

The recipe is pretty straightforward. The only real cooking you have to do is in preparing the noodles and seafood. You can buy fresh or frozen mixed seafood, pre-mixed, or just pick whatever is your favorite. If you need to watch your cholesterol intake you may just want to avoid the shellfish.
