EASY WEEKNIGHT SEAFOOD ALFREDO (DIABETIC FRIENDLY)



Easy Weeknight Seafood Alfredo (Diabetic Friendly) image

This is a standby from my single days when I wanted something a little fancier but I was on my own. I've modified it so hubby can enjoy as well. This recipe has 8g digestible carbs per serving if you use Dreamfields because it only has 5g per serving according to the box. I can't tell the difference between it and regular pasta.

EASY SEAFOOD ALFREDO

I didn't want to cook tonight, but I had a bag of Seafood Combo (the software wouldn't accept "Seafood Combo" in the ingredient list. It's a bag of different kinds of frozen cut-up seafood, like mussels, calamari and shrimp) in the freezer, so I created this yummy dish. It's really easy to make. You can find bags of frozen Seafood Combo in the freezer section with the other frozen meats. I used mushroom Alfredo.
