Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams Shirataki noodle pasta
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 200 ml Heavy cream
- 200 grams Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 50 grams Parmesan cheese, grated
- 50 grams Cream cheese
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons Paprika
- 50 grams Bacon, cooked and crumbled
Instructions
Drain and rinse the shirataki noodles thoroughly under cold water to remove any odor. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the drained shirataki noodles and sauté for about 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently until they are heated through.
Reduce the heat to low and pour in the heavy cream. Add the cream cheese and stir until the cheese has melted and the mixture is smooth.
Gradually add the shredded cheddar cheese and grated Parmesan, stirring continuously, until the cheeses have melted and the sauce is creamy.
Stir in the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and paprika, mixing well to combine all the flavors.
Increase the heat slightly to medium and simmer the sauce for another 2 to 3 minutes until it thickens slightly. Be careful not to boil, as it may cause the cream to separate.
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the crumbled bacon over the top before serving.
Serve the Keto Classic Macaroni Cheese hot and enjoy a delicious, creamy, and satisfying meal with significantly fewer carbs.
