What is Alfredo sauce
There is a reason it’s the most wanted sauce.
Because it has anything you want.
It’s cheesy, garlicky, buttery, creamy and of course it makes any pasta better.
How to make homemade Alfredo sauce
Homemade Alfredo sauce is made with cheese, butter, and heavy cream.
I do something different to keep it all plant based but not missing out on taste and flavor.
I found out what to do if you really want know how to make Fettuccine Alfredo not only delicious and super creamy.
I had to experiment a bit and finally came up with using both my 3 Ingredient Vegan Cheese Sauce and vegan cream cheese for the sauce.
Both take the sauce really to another level. Seriously be patient and brave not to eat the sauce before the pasta is ready.
It’s absolutely addictive and trust me, even my meat loving friends couldn’t believe it’s made without any dairy or butter.
For a more bold cheesy flavor, you can add optional nutritional yeast, it’s still really delicious without but if you like it really, really cheesy add it.
How to make Spinach Mushroom Fettuccine Alfredo
First cook your pasta according the package directions.
While it’s cooking, prepare the vegan cheese sauce:
Add cashews, vegetable broth, tahini plus this time the dairy free cream cheese, 3 of the 6 garlic cloves, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Add the optional nutritional yeast, garlic powder, and blend until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
Now heat a skillet pan with a bit of oil or vegetable broth. Add the remaining 3 cloves of garlic and mushrooms. Fry them for around 4 minutes.
Finally add spinach fry for 3 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper.
By now your pasta should be done. After draining them, mix everything together, and serve on plates or bowls.
This Spinach Mushroom Fettuccine Alfredo makes a fantastic dinner, lunch or quick week night meal which everyone will love. It’s super easy to make with minimal ingredients but high in flavor.
Also it can be a great meal preparation option, because it will reheat beautifully. I definitely suggest you can prepare in advance the pasta and the sauce, but I wouldn’t make the mushrooms and spinach at least just before serving.
Otherwise I could imagine it will get a bit mushy.
