I'd really like to find a sub for pasta, I was just thinking today, if I had a way to make a good Mac and Cheese, I'd be totally happy and I could eat this way forever, no problem. Just once in a while it would be nice to have that comfort food.

The fiber should slow down the absorption of the carb. That's the whole point of not eating highly processed flours. Once the fiber is gone, it'll shoot your BS up by getting into your blood stream very quickly. 
I have trouble with flour in general. I tend to binge on it. I've had to see it as a delivery system for my favorite sauces and find other ways to do that. Zoodles work when I'm in the mood.
There is a recipe around for making a mock mac and cheese using cauliflower. |
