Ingredients for making this zucchini Alfredo:
- squash– We used two medium zucchini and they should feed 3-4 people.
- butter– We used unsalted butter.
- garlic– Fresh is the best, but you can also use garlic powder.
- Cream cheese– We use regular cream cheese to enhance the richness, but you can use light cream cheese if you want.
- milk– We used 2% milk.
- Parmesan cheese– Usually, I prefer freshly ground Parmesan cheese. Melt is much better. However, since I don’t always have it on my hands, I used grated Parmesan today and it worked very well.
- Salt and pepper– Add season.

How to make Alfredo with zucchini:
- Make zucchini noodles. Trim the zucchini and create noodles with spiral compounds.
- Cook noodles. Heat about one tablespoon of oil in a large skillet. Throw in the zucchini and cook for about 1 minute. Take out the noodles.
- Make Alfredo Suace. In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for about 30 seconds or until fragrant. Add the softened cream cheese and stir until smooth. Stir gradually in the milk, stirring constantly. Once smooth, add the parmesan cheese, salt and pepper and cook until the sauce is good and thick.
- Toss with noodles. Remove from heat and add the zucchini noodles to the pan. Let them toss quickly and evenly coat the sauce. If needed, add extra parmesan cheese and fresh black pepper. enjoy!

Tips and suggestions:
How do you make zucchini noodles?
I used spiral attachments on my favorite food chopper, but don’t bother if you don’t have a spiral! This recipe is still within your scope. Here are some other options:
- Vegetable peeler: This will give you a wider noodles, but they are equally delicious and almost everyone has a peel.
- Mandolin: Use mandolin to get beautiful slices and then cut the slices lengthwise into noodles.
- Use Julienne Peeler: This is a cheap tool that will give you beautiful “angel hair pasta” noodles.
- Sharp Knife: You can also just have a good chef’s knife to cut the zucchini into thin wooden boards and then cut them into noodles in length. You end up with a slightly thicker, but equally delicious noodles.
Variations:
- Add cooked chicken (cubes and skillets, or chopped barbecue) to make chicken zucchini Alfredo
- Add 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
- Use half of zucchini noodles + half of alfredo noodles
- Throw some freshly diced tomatoes
- After throwing the noodles back into the skillet, add a spacious layer of Parmesan cheese. Place the oven on the oven for a minute or two until the top turns golden and bubbles. tasty!
