AuthorLife and Health NetworkIt’s hard to beat a rich and creamy Alfredo sauce over fresh pasta. It’s also something that you may have ruled out in your vegan journey. Fortunately, the creamy, smooth flavor of Alfredo is a taste that can be replicated without the addition of dairy products. Not only that, it can be whipped together in less than 15 minutes.

Surprisingly good taste, this. Honestly thought this would be yet another disappointing recipe found on the Internet, but wouldn’t you know, I went ahead and tried it.
Am sorry, though, that I followed the recipe, with one exception: I only had unsweetened soy milk. Cooking this to thicken it only added air bubbles. It didn’t thicken in the slightest. Next time, I’ll roast the garlic, and in lieu of onion powder, will sweat the onions first, then add both to the blender. Also, I’ll add only enough plant milk for a thick consistency. This simply doesn’t need to be cooked at all, but just brought together. A little avocado or olive oil probably wouldn’t hurt, either.. perhaps to substitute even more of the plant milk, for fat replacement which would be in real cheese.
But as I’ve said, the overall taste is quite good.
