This was so good! I added this sauce to my broccoli, ground turkey and rotini pasta and my kiddos and husband loved it. I’m not a fan of Aldredo sauce and this recipe has completely changed my mind. So Yummy, thank you!

AWESOME ALFREDO SAUCE
Excellent sauce. I did add a shallot that I sauteed in a bit of olive oil to break it down, but otherwise followed the recipe. My picky 17 year-old son liked it. Hubby licked his plate clean.
A keeper!

Excellent Alfredo sauce. This was delicious tossed with zoodles, cauliflower & broccoli then topped with a baked salmon filet. Thank you for sharing.
Delicious! I even got my daughters stamp of approval. She is extremely picky and the worst critic when it comes to food. I will definitely be making this again.
The only thing I did not do was add the nutmeg to the recipe. Everything else I followed exactly
Love it!!!
I’ll never buy store bought again. My 6 year old made this, it was so easy. Delicious!!!
Wow, that’s amazing Carrie! Sounds like you’ve got yourself a little chef in the house 🙂
