Keto Lion’s Mane Alfredo Noodles

This recipe was created by Ariel Helperin-Lange. Ariel has been on various forms of the ketogenic diet for nearly two years for epilepsy control. She is the creator of arielsketorecipes.org which was part of her senior high school project. She knows first hand that it can be intimidating to take on such a big lifestyle change and is difficult to sustain it. That experience has motivated her to expand the library of available keto recipes to make the diet more accessible and more pleasant for others. * This version of Ariel’s recipe posted on the Charlie Foundation website was calculated using KetoDietCalculator.org.

I hesitated on what to name this recipe because it has so many distinctive elements. Alfredo / cream sauce, fettuccine style noodles, Miracle Noodles, lion’s mane mushroom, etc. I liked the idea of putting lion’s mane mushroom in a recipe because I heard it can be good for people with epilepsy. This is not medical advice, simply anecdotal. It can be somewhat hard to find, unfortunately. I buy it at the farmers market. 

I know that people are likely to make a double recipe so that you don’t have to set aside some of the noodles. Just keep in mind that that will change cook times and if you do that and split it up afterwards it might change the nutritional information. Also, the picture might make it look like a small serving, but it’s very filling.
