Ingredients
- 4 cups Zucchini noodles (zoodles)
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.125 teaspoon Nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Begin by preparing your zoodles. If using a spiralizer, create zucchini noodles and set aside. Alternatively, you can purchase pre-made zoodles from the supermarket.
Step 2
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.
Step 3
Add the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and add the cream cheese, stirring until melted and the mixture is smooth.
Step 4
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Continue stirring until the sauce is thick and creamy, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 5
Increase the heat to medium and add the zoodles to the sauce. Toss gently to coat the zoodles thoroughly in the creamy sauce. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the zoodles are heated through but still slightly firm (al dente).
Step 6
Remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the creamy white sauce pasta to serving plates.
Step 7
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and extra Parmesan cheese, if desired, before serving.
