Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
Begin by preparing the shirataki noodles according to package instructions, usually by rinsing them thoroughly under cold water and boiling for about 2-3 minutes.
Drain the noodles and dry them well by patting with a towel to remove excess moisture.
Place a saucepan over medium heat and add the butter. Once melted, add the heavy cream and bring to a simmer.
Lower the heat, add in the cream cheese, and stir until it is completely melted and smooth.
Gradually add the shredded cheddar cheese, stirring continuously until the cheese melts, and the sauce is creamy.
Add in the parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Stir well to combine.
Remove from heat and let the cheese sauce cool for about 2-3 minutes.
In a small bowl, beat the eggs, then slowly whisk them into the cheese sauce, ensuring to avoid curdling.
Combine the cheese sauce and the prepared shirataki noodles, mixing well to ensure the noodles are fully coated.
Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish and spread it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
Optionally, garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
