Keto, Low Carb, Gluten Free & Grain Free!!

This is a hearty & filling dinner idea that I whip up on special occasions. I used to eat this dish pre-Keto and didn’t have to change much except ditching the pasta. I eat it over cauliflower rice, zucchini noodles, broccoli, etc. If you have non- keto people to feed simply serve this yummy alfredo over pasta. Everyone will be happy! Don’t like Shrimp? Sub it out for precooked chicken. Hope you love it!! =)
