Full Dairy Alfredo Sauce (Light)

Updated: Nov 9, 2022



In contrast to the Healthy Alfredo Sauce recipe, this one doesn't utilize any nuts or milk alternatives. It's a classic, full dairy version, which is perfect for when you don't care about spending a ton of time processing nut creams and just want some great flavor. This is quick, easy, and involves ingredients you most likely already have in your kitchen.


Note: Typical alfredo sauces utilize heavy cream. This recipe is made lighter by using Whole Milk instead, and about half the amount of butter. That being said, this sauce does not compromise on flavor!
