Using Zucchini To make Noodles
I know that when you are making a recipe that involves things like zucchini it can be difficult to know what size you should be grabbing. For this shrimp alfredo recipe with zoodles, you will want to use 2 medium zucchinis per serving(this recipe makes 4 servings). A medium zucchini will net you roughly 2 cups of zucchini noodles, which has just 33 calories, and just 4 net carbs (6 grams of total carbohydrates and 2 grams of fiber) per medium zucchini.
To make zucchini noodles you do need a Zoodle spiralizer, there are quite a few different options that you have for this, a KitchenAid Mixer spiralizer attachment, a handheld spiralizer and a counter top spiralizer are a few options, but just go with what works best for you.

Place 2 tablespoons butter, shrimp and garlic in a saute pan over medium heat until the shrimp are pink and remove from pan, set to the side.

Whisk together until butter and cream have combined and until the sauce bubbles slightly.
Add Parmesan cheese and garlic powder and stir until everything is mixed well. Turn off the heat, the sauce will thicken as it cools a little.
