Ingredients
Cabbage Noodles
- 1 head Cabbage shredded into noodle-like strips
Alfredo Sauce
- 1 cup Cottage Cheese blend until smooth
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese freshly grated
- 2 tablespoons Butter unsalted
- 2 cloves Garlic freshly minced
- to taste Salt
- to taste Pepper
Optional Add-ins
- 1 cup Chicken/Shrimp/Scallops cooked separately

Instructions
Preparation
- Begin by shredding the cabbage into noodle-like strips. Sauté these in a lightly greased skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes, until they turn tender and slightly translucent.
- In a blender, combine the cottage cheese and blend until smooth, achieving a creamy consistency. In a saucepan over low heat, melt butter, add freshly minced garlic, and then stir in the blended cottage cheese and grated Parmesan until everything is melted and creamy.
- Gently toss the sautéed cabbage with the rich alfredo sauce until each noodle is well coated. If you're adding proteins or vegetables, mix them in at this stage.
- Take a moment to taste your creation and season it with salt, pepper, and any optional spices you desire.
- Plate this delightful dish hot, and consider garnishing with a sprinkle of extra Parmesan cheese for that indulgent touch.
Notes
Ensure the cottage cheese is blended until smooth and sauté the cabbage just until tender to retain a crunch.
