Easy Alfredo Sauce

From the recipe collection of Tara Ippolito

This easy Alfredo sauce is one of my favorite things to eat over pasta. It's so rich, creamy and absolutely delicious.

This is one of my favorite recipes to order out to eat and I never knew how easy it was to make at home. When I first made it, I almost couldn't believe how great it was.

For some reason, I expected it to be way more complicated than it was. Maybe because it tastes so good I thought there had to be some big secret to it or something.

Now that I know how easy and delicious it is to make for myself, its something that I make for my family often.

It's a recipe that I've made for everything from celebrating the holidays to casual weekday dinner at home.

One of the best things about this recipe is how quick and easy it is to put together.

It can be on the table in 20 minutes and ready for dinner. Fast and simple recipes like this are my go to's ob busy weeknights.

This is one of those stick to your ribs pasta dishes that will keep everyone full and happy for hours. My family always goes in for seconds they all love it so much.
