We took the traditional route and made ours into chicken, broccoli, alfredo with pasta and it didn’t disappoint! Another way I want to try this alfredo sauce from scratch is use it as a white sauce on pizza with some cut up veggies on top. How delicious does that sound?!

In our house, we always have a huge block of extra sharp cheddar cheese and use it in all of our recipes. We prefer the strong flavor over a lot of other cheeses and I think it is what made the flavor so amazing in this recipe.

A way to get your kiddos to eat their veggies is add a few tablespoons of this alfredo sauce over the top of them. I promise they will love the cheese flavor and won’t complain about eating their veggies anymore!
