Notes

Tips for a Creamy Dairy-Free Alfredo Sauce
  • Allow your creamy pasta sauce to properly simmer before you take it off the heat. This is essential especially if you are working with almond or cashew milk.
  • Feel free to add additional flavors to your dairy-free alfredo sauce recipe. Some recipes suggest dropping a pinch of nutmeg for an extra kick.
  • Use a silicon whisk on your non-stick pan. You really don't want to ruin a perfectly good kitchen utensil.
