Ingredients

• 16 ounces Tofu shirataki fettuccini noodles
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the tofu shirataki fettuccini noodles under cool running water for 1-2 minutes. Drain well and pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

Step 2

In a large nonstick skillet, dry fry the noodles over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, to remove any remaining water and reduce their natural odor. Set the noodles aside.

Step 3

Mince the garlic cloves finely.

Step 4

Using the same skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant but not browned.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, and cream cheese. Whisk constantly until the mixture is smooth and begins to thicken, about 3-5 minutes.

Step 6

Season the Alfredo sauce with salt, black pepper, and nutmeg (if using), stirring to combine.

Step 7

Add the cooked tofu shirataki noodles to the skillet and toss them with the Alfredo sauce until evenly coated and warmed through, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 8

Serve the Tofu Shirataki Fettuccini Alfredo immediately. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and extra Parmesan cheese on top.
