Low Carb & Keto Fettuccine Alfredo Noodles

Low Carb & Keto Fettuccine Alfredo Noodles

Fettuccine drenched in Alfredo sauce; topped with parmesan cheese and parsley flakes is the perfect comfort food to me!  But is it low carb? That’s the question I have been asking myself lately, as I enter my second week on Atkin’s low carb diet.
Although I don’t count my carbs, I still check the nutritional facts on packaging to make sure the foods I’m about to eat contain the lowest carbohydrates possible!
I created my low carb fettuccine Alfredo noodles using Nasoya mushroom noodles. These noodles contain only one net carb. In order to figure the total net carbs on various foods, you subtract the total amount of carbohydrates from fiber, and that will give you the net carbs in packaged food items.  The Alfredo sauce in this recipe is made using a combination of heavy cream and parmesan cheese. What are some of your favorite noodle recipes?

Ingredients

  • 1 Almond Flour Pie Crust
  • 5 Large Organic Eggs
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Parsley Flakes
  • 1/2 tsp Trader Joe's 21 Seasonings Salute

  • 1 cup Organic Green & Red Peppers

Instructions

  1. Bake almond flour crust at 375 for 5-10 minutes, or until the center of the crust rises and the edges of the crust get crisp. While the crust is baking, whisk your eggs, spices, cheese, heavy cream, and peppers into a bowl. After you take the almond flour crust out of the oven, pour your egg mixture onto the crust. Place your quiche into the oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the quiche gets crisp. Another way to ensure that your quiche is cooked, stick a knife into the center of the quiche. If the knife is clean when you remove it from the quiche, then it's cooked.
