Gluten-Free Creamy Seafood Alfredo is so creamy and delectable. Needless to say, you won’t even notice that in place of pasta there is spiralized butternut squash. So creamy, tasty, and full of decadent flavor. Make with my Homemade Shellfish Stock giving this dish more depth of flavor. Consequently, if you love lobster then this dish is for you. Langostino’s are often known as the poor man’s lobster. Gluten-Free Creamy Seafood Alfredo on a plate with a piece of langostino and shrimp

We don’t tend to eat a lot of seafood in my house. If you have read my bio on my blog then you know my mother is from Sweden. As a child, we tended to eat a lot of seafood and fish. In Fact, my favorite fish dish that my mother would make is either Idaho Rainbow Trout or Fiskgratang. Sweden is surrounded by water and because of this tends to eat a lot of fish. My mother who is almost 80 recently took a trip by herself to Sweden. Needless to say, I cannot tell you how very proud I am of her for traveling by herself at her age.

Gluten-Free Creamy Seafood Alfredo Notes:

Indeed, this recipe came about as I had langostino and shrimp in my freezer.  In all honesty, I was in the mood for pasta but since I can’t eat grains I started thinking about substitutes that I could use. In conclusion, butternut squash, spaghetti squash, or zucchini zoodles can be used. As a matter of fact, the squash when spiralized made a hefty amount of what I called vegetable pasta. Raw squash was added to the dish and cooked with the seasonings and liquids.

Furthermore, might I suggest that you use your favorite white wine. Incidentally, the creamy parmesan alfredo sauce is so decadent and delectable you won’t even notice the noodles are not pasta.  However, if you don’t own a spiralizer check them out on Amazon.

The lemon zest, lemon juice, wine, heavy cream, and parmesan give this dish a fresh and creamy texture with slight acidity and texture from the squash.

    This is a waaaaay healthier version of the traditional Alfredo dishes. Love the healthy twist on the zucchini for pasta.
