Alfredo Sauce

I. Love. Pasta. And if I were to choose between a traditional red sauce or creamy Alfredo sauce, I would choose Alfredo any day. I love how creamy and garlicky it is, and I love the sharpness from the Parmesan. It's my favorite thing to order when we eat out.

My favorite way to serve Alfredo sauce is with fettuccine noodles and shrimp. I also serve it with chicken, broccoli, or even with just the noodles. You can serve it on veggies or a baked potato. You can try different shapes of pasta. Penne works great! Or you can add some Cajun seasoning for a little spice or some Italian seasoning for extra flavor.

Please note that it is best to use Parmesan that you have grated yourself, as the kind in the shaker jar or a bag has fillers or an anti-caking agent added, making it hard to get a smooth consistency for sauce.
