Garlicky Creamy Alfredo Sauce; make no mistake, with this handy dandy sauce you and your family are in for a treat + more free time to spare!
I remember when, in an effort to get rit of some heavy cream prior to expiring, my Alfredo Sauce was born. Back then it was just a plain creamy-ish (at best) sauce, missing a few too many factors to even qualify as a good meal. I-will-be-honest!
However, a couple weeks ago I was determined to change the fate of my poorly invested Alfredo Sauce. While my family and I were eating at a restaurante and I noticed that all four kids had ordered pasta with Alfredo Sauce (again!). While most times I am too busy stuffing my face with bread and olive oil, this time it hit me hard... why don't I make some Alfredo Sauce?

Alfredo Sauce is something we don't really know over here in Belgium! On the other hand when I read about it, it makes me think about the delicious cheese based sauces we have over here and I think I might like this sauce too! As you say garlic makes everything better! No time to waste 🙂

I was wondering if you've had any luck with freezing this?
Silvia Ribas says
Hi Christa! I haven't tried freezing this recipe yet. It goes so quickly at my house Lol. However I can't imagine it not freezing well, like most sauces do.
Beka says
I make a double or triple batch and freeze using an extra large ice cube tray. Then I have individual servings which is perfect for packed lunches in a thermos!

Any idea on the nutritional data for this please?
Silvia Ribas says
Hi Lisa, unfortunately my recipe plugin does not support the nutrition fact label but you can find a nutrition generator on google. Just copy and pasta the ingredients. Sorry about that

I have been searching for a garlicky Alfredo sauce for a few days. This recipe caught my eye for the amount of garlic it uses and looking fairly simple. I decided to give it a test run in the afternoon in case I screwed it up I’d have time to fix it before dinner 😂. Turns out I did not mess it up and, in fact, it’s soooo delicious that I’m now mad we have to wait for dinner time!!!
Silvia Ribas says
That's really great, I am so happy to hear! I make this sauce all the time for my kids, they literally lick their plates clean 🙂
Amber says
