Velvety and smooth, this Alfredo sauce has an amazingly creamy texture and a subtle garlic flavor that perfectly accents its rich consistency. It is delicious over several types of pasta and vegetables. Just pour it over a steaming pile of noodles for a quick and easy meal that contains plenty of flavor, protein, and healthy fats.
Also, this rich sauce doesn’t contain any animal products, but the texture is so creamy that you won’t even miss the cream; it’s completely plant-based and cruelty-free.
