How to make Keto Quick And Easy Creamy Mushroom Pasta

Melt the butter in a skillet over a low/medium heat. Add the onion and garlic. Sweat gently for 2-3 minutes until tender and fragrant.
Wipe the mushrooms clean and quarter them. Add the mushrooms to the skillet and stir to combine. Cook for a few minutes to brown.
Add the cream cheese and stock to the skillet and stir well to combine. Simmer until the sauce is thick and creamy. Add the parmesan and stir well.
Add the zucchini noodles to the skillet along with the chives, lemon zest, salt and pepper. Stir well to combine. Cook through briefly until the noodles are hot, just tender and coated in the sauce. Do not overcook as the zucchini will release too much liquid.
