Healthier Alfredo Sauce

• 1 pound whole wheat fettuccine
• 8 ounces zucchini, cut into thin strips with a vegetable peeler
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 clove garlic, crushed
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

1. Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Stir in the fettuccine, bring back to a boil, and cook pasta over medium heat until cooked through but still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Lightly cook zucchini by tossing into pasta water just before draining.
2. Heat butter and garlic in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir in cream and simmer for 5 minutes, then add cheese and whisk quickly, heating through. Stir in parsley.
3. Toss sauce with cooked whole wheat fettuccine and zucchini strips.
