Instant Alfredo Sauce Mix

- #84139
This is an excellent mix to have on hand at a moment's notice. It makes a pasta dish loads better than you'd get with heavy jarred alfredo, without the hassle of making the sauce from scratch just for a weeknight dinner. All about the balance.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.

I didn't like this recipe because the sauce was just too thin for my liking. The cooking time for this recipe isn't even listed. I rate this a 1 - no good.

This was really easy and you can make the base ahead and use only the amount you need.
