Ingredients
  

4 medium zucchinis (zoodles)

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper to taste

1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for a hint of spice)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Zoodles: Using a spiralizer, create zoodles from the zucchinis. If you don’t have a spiralizer, you can use a vegetable peeler to create long thin strips. Set the zoodles aside.

    Sauté Garlic: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

      Make the Creamy Sauce: Reduce the heat to low. Pour in the heavy cream and stir well. Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese, whisking until the cheese melts and the sauce becomes creamy. If it’s too thick, add a splash of pasta water or more cream.

        Season the Sauce: Stir in the Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to taste. If you like a little heat, add the red pepper flakes.

          Combine Zoodles and Sauce: Gently toss the zoodles in the creamy garlic Parmesan sauce, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes until the zoodles are warmed through but still al dente.

            Serve: Plate the creamy garlic Parmesan zoodles and garnish with fresh parsley. Enjoy your delicious dish while it's hot!
