Alfredo Anyone?

I LOVE creamy foods - especially Alfredo. This was such a hit tonight with everyone I thought I would share with you :)

 

  • 1 cup soaked raw cashews

  • 3/4 cup of water

  • 2 teaspoons Nutritional Yeast

  • Salt and Pepper to taste

  • 1 Clove of fresh garlic ( I would add more for me personally, but for the kids this was enough :)

  • Silver dollar size chunk of fresh Parmesan cheese ( This is the only time in my cooking I use dairy. You can do it without, but my body does good with this small amount :)

  • Salt and Pepper to taste


In a high powered blender - I use Blendtec - blend on a high speed for about a minute. If using Blendtec, push the Fondue and Soup button and let it go.

Perfect creamy, low fat yumminess. Pour over steamed veggies, whole grain/gluten free pasta or eat by itself! We served ours with some broiled chicken and a big salad!

  2. I soak the cashews overnight usually, but for at least 2 hours if you just decided to make it :)
