The Best Keto Shrimp and Cheese Pasta
Living Without Pasta
One of the soul-destroying things about being on a keto diet, is not being able to eat pasta. But cry no more readers! Because we’ve discovered some low carb noodles to satisfy your Italian cravings! They are called house Foods Tofu Shirataki Noodles and are perfect for topping with whatever you like! Bolognese is always a good one, but here we’ve used shrimp to create the best keto shrimp and cheese pasta recipe in the entire world. On a final note, we’d also like to give a huge shout out and special thanks to Reddit user /u/InstyKim for creating this delicious recipe!
Recipe Information
This recipe is literally as easy as heating up some noodles and tossing the rest of the ingredients into a pan until they’re cooked. This makes it the perfect dish for treating yourself to on a weeknight when it’s been a long day and all you really want to do is go to bed. If you triple the quantity of the ingredients, you can even serve this as a family dish.
The flavors in this meal are incredible. To start, use some plump, juicy shrimp and season them with Old Bay Seasoning for a truly sensational flavor. Then by adding cream cheese, which goes so well with the dash of lemon juice, and nacho seasoning (we like Stonemill Nacho Cheese Popcorn Seasoning), you can mix this into the plain noodles, which will beautifully absorb all of that tasty flavor. Simple!
Nutritional Information
For a dinner-time dish, this meal is incredibly low in calories. Each portion only contains 397 cals, which is perfect for anybody watching their weight or taking part in a calorie-controlled diet. For us keto-ers, it has a huge 17.9 grams of fat and only 4.7 grams of carbs. This even makes it perfect for anyone on a low carbohydrate diet, such as those following Atkins for example. Finally, it has a good 4.1 grams of fiber and contains a whopping 45.6 grams of protein! Now that makes it perfect for absolutely anybody!
So, it’s now time to put on your apron and start tossing that shrimp!
