Best Tofu Shirataki Spinach Alfredo Recipes
SHIRATAKI NOODLE FETTUCCINE ALFREDO
A lower cal/fat version of the classic creamy noodle dish, using my favorite tofu noodles! You can also use regular noodles with the sauce of course. This makes enough sauce to cover an added meat or vegetable.

Steps:
- Drain tofu noodles. Using a scissors, cut them into 3-4" pieces. Parboil for 2-3 minutes to remove the "Shirataki" aroma from the noodles.
- Combine ricotta, cream cheese, half and half, margarine, parmesan, salt and pepper and mix slightly.
- Spray treat a small non-stick skillet with cooking spray. Over medium heat, add the garlic and saute for 2-3 minutes, until it becomes fragrant.
- Add the tofu noodles and heat through, stirring. Add pre-cooked meat or veggie here, if desired, and heat through.
- Reduce heat to low-medium. Make a reservoir in the center of the pan with the noodles surrounding. Add the sauce mixture and let it soften. Mix it up and stir it into the noodles.
- Heat through and serve!
SPINACH ALFREDO SAUCE (BETTER THAN OLIVE GARDEN®)
Better than Olive Garden®! Top with grilled chicken on fettuccine pasta for a complete meal or use as a dip for bread sticks. Delicious rich and creamy spinach Alfredo everyone will love. When I make this dish, everyone raves over it! Add more spinach if you're a spinach lover or leave it out if you're not a fan. I like adding lots of garlic! For a thicker sauce, add more cream cheese.
