ZOODLES WITH MUSHROOM CREAM SAUCE

Zoodles with Mushroom Cream sauce is where it’s at! This sauce is amazing and would also be delicious on any other pasta. Also, I feel like it is worth saying that 3 of my 5 kids cannot stand mushrooms. And all 5 of my kids LOVE this sauce. Somehow the yummy creaminess of it helps the mushrooms go down. My husband also likes to eat this sauce plain, with a spoon. (Which…. maybe tells me I should make a soup version of this sauce?) anyway- it’s so good!

I was inspired by @breezybakesglutenfree when she made something similar in her Instagram stories. So technically she gets all the credit 😘
