This Mushroom Cream Sauce that I loved served over Zoodles (spiraled zucchini) is incredibly delicious and is the PERFECT way to use the abundance of summer zucchini this time of year (in my humble opinion:). My Momma and I whipped this up together while I was visiting Utah and my gluten free son Coleman was home that night to enjoy it with us. Seriously, it was hit! Although the next time I made it, my guys all agreed that the mushroom sauce would be better over meat instead of zoodles! My boys are self proclaimed ‘carnivores’ but I am always trying to get more veggies in them one way or another.
I love this dish so much that my mouth waters, just looking at these pictures. Even the leftovers the next day are fantastic! Of course, my boys are right, this delicious mushroom cream sauce doesn’t have to go over zoodles, you could easily swap the veggies for regular noodles, rice or mashed potatoes. Pour it over pork chops, chicken or steak. Anyway you serve this sauce, will be amazing! You really can’t go wrong any way you serve it!
