We recreated this restaurant favorite at home with Palmini Angel Hair Pasta and Primal Kitchen Garlic Alfredo Sauce, but you can also substitute your favorite type of noodles.

What is Heart of Palm?
Hearts of palm come from the edible inner core of certain palm trees. This unexpected vegetable is often compared to artichokes and white asparagus, with a gentle taste that makes a perfect base for the flavorful sauce to take center stage. Hearts of Palm noodles are a great gluten-free, lower-carb veggie pasta option for meals made quickly. If the taste of the noodles is a tad too acidic for you, soak them in the milk of your choice for about 30 minutes prior to heating them up.
