Are rice noodles healthy?

Question

I am trying to eat healthier, are rice noodles considered a healthy choice, how about compaired to regular pasta noodles?

Answer 1

depends on your definition of healthy.  Rice noodles will have less protein and more starch so take your choice and figure out what you want.  Personally I think pasta with its complex carbohydrates and not bad protein tastes pretty good.
