Texture of Zoodles:
Zoodles, or zucchini noodles, have a texture similar to al dente pasta but slightly crunchier. They provide a light and refreshing base for dishes like Alfredo.

Is Alfredo Sauce Healthy?
Alfredo sauce made with heavy cream and Parmesan cheese is rich and indulgent, so it’s best enjoyed in moderation. While it’s not the healthiest option due to its high fat content, you can make adjustments like using light cream or adding more vegetables to increase its nutritional value.

Storage Instructions:
Store any leftover Zucchini Alfredo in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Can You Freeze Zoodles Alfredo?
Zucchini noodles don’t freeze well as they can become mushy when thawed. It’s best to enjoy Zucchini Alfredo fresh for the best texture and flavor.

What to Serve with Zucchini Alfredo:
Zucchini Alfredo pairs well with a side salad, garlic bread, or roasted vegetables for a complete meal. You can also serve it alongside grilled chicken or shrimp for added protein.
