Low Carb Blackened Chicken Alfredo

This is one of my recipes I have posted on SparkPeople. I made it tonight and, as usual, it was a hit. The cheesy topping is to die for. I used zucchini, mushrooms and carrotts as I didnt have squash or cauliflower. Still was great. Apologies for no picture. I never seem to never remember to photograph this one. It's not particularly photogenic anyway :)
