Pour the heavy cream into the skillet and bring to a gentle simmer. Allow to cook for about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 6
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper, continuing to cook until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth.
Step 7
Add the zoodles to the skillet and toss them gently with the sauce until they are well coated and heated through, approximately 2-3 minutes.
Step 8
Remove from heat and sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy your comforting low-carb mushroom cream pasta.
